Try to remain in the moment, take baby steps. A general truth I try to remember is to take action and then the motivation will follow. One moment at a time. Easier said than done,keep trying.
This morning started out ok. I was finally able to sleep on my side again last night without much more than muscle cramping. Not a whole lot of pain in my neck this morning. Was looking up really. So now my lower back is just killing me and the nerves in my legs are pinched. My heart rate was high and beating hard and my face got really hot and I could feel the panic coming on. I'm trying to fight it though. I had an order for an MRI of my lower back which I had not had done because after the neck one I needed a break and went home instead of finishing the rest the Dr. had ordered. So I called the hospital and the MRI machine is there and I made an appt to get the lower back done today. It feels better to be taking action instead of sitting here panicking. Now I gotta worry about the fear of the MRI but I know I have to make it through it. I think it helps some that I can do something proactive. I worry because tomorrow is another day to deal with but I guess I better not start fretting over that.
