Another hurdle to climb
So on Mon I was just bending down to load the dishwasher and all of a sudden was in agonizing pain! After 3 days of seeing drs and having an MRI they told me I have a herniated disc in my lower spine.
I'm in soo much pain and can barely walk. I'm having a steroid injection done tomorrow and praying it helps. We haven't been able to at all and honestly the pain is so bad I can't imagine TTC right now. To be quite honest, part of me is kind of happy I'm not pregnant yet bc I can't imagine having this kind of pain and not being able to take any pain killers or get treatment, which I'm sure I wouldn't be able to get if I was preg.
I'm just feeling really bummed bc I feel like it has been one thing after another and something is continuously preventing us from getting preg. My OB just called me yest and told me all my blood work came back normal bc last week I was having abnormal bleeding, and he wants to start me on Clomid on my next period. Now idk if I can even do that
Anyway, thank you for listening. TTC is such a long and difficult road for some people

Re: Another hurdle to climb
I'm so sorry. I cant imagine how frustrating your journey has been. I completely agree w/your rational regarding the pain meds, etc. I have two compressed discs in my lower back. I have had them for about 12 yrs and the pain has lessened over the years. In the past the pain has been so bad, I was sure my spine was going to break in two. My advice to you, and of course discuss this w/your dr is get yourself in some pilates or yoga classes. If neither of them interest you, swimming is amazing for back pain. Good Luck.

Re: Another hurdle to climb
Thank you ladies, I had my epidural steroid injection today. I'm praying this will bring me some relief and lessen the pain for me bc it really is unbearable. Thanks for the support
