Let the process begin. Today I receive the first attempt to remedy years of back pain. Nervous, na, more excited. Gonna get steroid shot in the bulging disk causing all the pain. Now I’ve had these same shots while on active duty and didn’t seem to have much success, however that was 11 years ago, So I remain optimistic.

As far as my stay here at the hospital. The staff has been amazing. Friendly and attentive. During the day I continue to stretch and raise my left leg. Its my left side causing the most pain and still unable to raise my leg with support from me lifting with my arm. I’m determined to kick this pain in the ass. 10 years of it is enough.

Stay tuned for more updates.
