I thought I’d finally figured out a way to end the severe pain that’s been grinding me down for the last 40 days.
I was wrong … again!
The challenge is that I’m really not sure just what’s causing the pain. No question the exceedling damp, cold morning air triggers the pain. And, once the pain has been triggered there seems little I can do make it go away.
By noon the pain had become to much and I could no longer force myself to work. So, I went to bed and napped for 2 1/2 hours hoping that sleep would ease the pain. Often it does. It didn’t!
Now is that because a thunder clap awakened me too soon? Damned if I know.
Sometimes a soak in hot water, saturated with Epsom salts (Magnesium Sulfate) helps. Didn’t today.
Sometimes sex helps. Didn’t today.
Sometimes a good brisk walk helps. Didn’t today.
Sometime a glass of wine helps. Didn’t today.
Sometimes acupuncture helps. Ain’t helping so far.
No drugs I’ve taken have helped permanently.
It helps to distract myself from the pain. That’s one of the appeals of Facebook and Twitter and other Social Media sites where I can socialize and forget myself.
But, god would I love a Silver Bullet!
Except there ain’t one.
