We’re all stars… in the dope show
I went to the doctor today about my back.
For those of you who read this thing from time to time, I had surgery a few months ago to deal with a herniated disk (between L4 and L5). Recently, the discomfort I felt before has started returning with a vengeance.
After a quick examination, my physician referred me back to my neurosurgeon and filled my blood with steroids and vicodin.
This causes problems at work, as my job requires higher brain functions, but my boss understands and will make sure I don’t get buried with things I can’t possibly hope to do.
Now I’m waiting to find out when things are gonna happen. At this point, it’s probable that they’ll have to cut me open again and correct whatever’s wrong. Of course, I’ll have them tape the procedure this time so that I can mpg it and post it (wheeee, my spine on the web!).
If the above post doesn’t make a lot of sense, it’s because I’m pretty damn doped up right now.
