So, the leg is acting up…
Hurts like freakin hell.
Doc, says (this time) could be Sciatica. Swell, that’s diagnosis 4 1/2.
Didn’t take the good drugs on the weekend… ran out.
Man oh man, ya appreciates drugs when ya don’t got em.
Just off the phone with my favourite clinical pschologist Dr. Karen Shue. Karen’s one of the people most responsible for me getting back my health.
Talked about my notion that the pain is psychogenic in origin. And, about my plan to move ahead with a dialogue with the pain.
Instead, she suggested an interim step.
Sit with the pain.
That is, just experience it, feel it, see what happens. It will subside just from ‘sitting with it"
I’m not the patient type. But, the pain is severe so I know something important is going on
So, I shall sit.
