The paramedic becomes the patient...
Well...it's official I am going under the knife. The paramedic becomes the patient. For those who don't read my little blog here, I have been out of work for a month and a half now on injury. I have ruptured another disc in my back. I ruptured one 11 years ago and now I have popped the one below it. Luckly, maybe, Well not really, because it means I did a number on my back, I am not having much in the way of pain, but I have significant weakness and numbness in my left leg. Walking with a slight limb, I feel like a cripple. So now many doctor's visits, ineffective injections, an ambulance ride, and one ER visit later, my doctor and I have desided that if I am to continue in my current line of work surgery is my option now. Trufully, I just want it fixed. I just want to go back to work. Surgery is scary, but I just want it fixed. I have been dealing with this for 11 years now. And now it's getting fixed. So after next week it might be a while for my next post...but I ll get back as soon as I can...until next time

Thanks mama mia. I appreciate it.
I know things will go well and you'll be back to doing the things you love before you know it. I'll be thinking good thoughts for you!
