I didn't post because I went to be at 1900. Why would I do that? How could I do that? Well, it's because of a couple reasons.
The pain in my body became so intense throughout the night that I wasn't sleeping well. Then, when Eis woke up at 0430, I couldn't fall back to sleep. I grabbed my shiatsu pillow and figured, since I'm up, I may as well read. After a round or two of shiatsu, I tried to sleep, but after only moments of lying down, I knew it was fruitless. I decided I'd just keep reading and be in whatever position was mildly comfortable.
Eventually, 0700 rolled around. I knew that I couldn't, nor would it be a good idea to, Zumba. I finished my book and at 0900, I rested flat on my back for about 30 minutes before getting out of bed.
I went to rehab and she worked on me and mashed away, but neither of us could figure out why my first rib was acting up so much. She also pushed my C6 and C7 back into place, which reduced the neck pain. She told me to talk to Dr. P about it on Monday and see what his thoughts are.
After rehab, I came home to "babysit." I put her down for a nap and figured I should take something to dull the pain. As she stopped nursing during the day, I figured I could take 1/2 a zanaflex. While I was looking for them, I saw muscle relaxers, too. I decided I should take both. They do different things, both of which I needed done.
After I made dinner and was feeding Eis, I was hit with the sleepy side-effects of the pills. That, coupled with the fact that I'd been up since 0430, made for quite the stupor. I was unable to function smoothly and knew I needed to go to sleep as soon as I got Eis down. Luckily, she was tired and went to sleep by 1845.
Thus, I passed out by 1900.
It would have been a painful blog to type, I bet.
