It is 3:00 and I can't sleep. I fell asleep no problem around 9:30, and slept until around 12:15. I woke up with heartburn and back pain. I had taken a pain pill right before bed, and I guess it wore off. If I take one now, I don't know that I'll be able to work later this morning, but if I don't, I don't know that I'll be able to fall asleep again.
The MRI showed multiple problems with my lower back. Degenerative arthritis, ruptured and bulging disks as well as fibroids. I'm so luck to be me! Since I can't take stuff like Aleve or Ibuprofen due to my Crohn's, they put me on a 60 mg Predisone taper, so I had to stop my Budesonide to take the predisone. I just hope that it helps, because it doesn't seem like there is anything else to do.
I just want to sleep. Friday is always such a long day. I work in the office instead of at home. It is also Shabbat, so we'll be up later than normal for that. I wish I didn't feel like it was an obligation instead of a joy, but every Friday seems longer and longer and I am more worn out.
