The Verdict

Well the verdict is in- I have a bulging disk in my lower back that is pressing on my nerve and causing all the pain.

When I visited the doctor yesterday, He prescribed some pain medication for me. I was more than happy to take it. It was all good until 1:00 this morning when I found out I'm a lightweight. I was attacked with severe nausea and then collapsed on the bathroom floor. Pain medication obviously doesn't agree with me. I guess I'll be sticking with ibuprophen!

I went to the Chiropractor twice today and he says there is and 85% chance that he can fix my back with adjustments. My general practitioner wants me to see a neourosurgeon. Joel and I have decided to stick with the Chiropractor for now. He seems to think he can reduce my pain with in a couple of days. We'll see.

Keep praying for me. I'm still in bed and dealing with severe pain.

  4. Oh, I am so sorry you are going through this. I am going to pray that your Chiro will be able to adjust you so that you will have relief from the pain - and that he can fix it without you having to go see the neourosurgeon. Big hugs...

  5. Lord, I ask that You will heal Jenn quickly. May the Chiropractor be able to put everything back how it should be and fix the problem. And if Jenn needs to see a neurosurgeon, may You make a way for that as well. Amen.
