i think I know the origin of my back pain!
|
Well, I think I finally solved the mystery of why my lower back has been hurting so much lately. Okay, my mattress springs were definitely contributing to some of it. There's no doubt about it. The LuraFlex coils were just to conforming. Adding the door skin plywood made my bed feel entirely different in a wonderful way! However, there's another reason for the pain on my right, lower back. I didn't even associate the two. I have a large ovarian cyst which the doctor said is so big she can't even tell which side its on. It seems to be taking up the whole space! I was due to have surgery in late August until I caught a cold. Surgery will now be October 8th. One ovary out, a hysterectomy and total pelvic reconstruction. Oh, joy. Anyway, I was bragging to my GYN that I had no symptoms of an ovarian cyst. I was astonished when the ultrasound showed it being so large. Well, as it turns out, I HAVE been having pain, but instead of the front, it's been on my lower back. That makes perfect sense. And, you know, I'm relieved to know it's not just my mattress or middle age that's causing it. At least, I know there's a 'cure" come October 8th! In the meantime, I'm thrilled that I had this idea to cover my coils with something firm. I still say those springs were just too flexible. So, hopefully, in a couple weeks time my back pain will be a thing of the past! |
