I can totally see how an MRI could freak someone out. Especially someone with claustrophobia.
I was okay, though. Doped up on enough pain killer and muscle relaxers that I just sorta zoned out and wanted to sleep.
I even went and taught class after. Then home for a very long nap. Got a call from my doctor's office about 2:30pm. Didn't think I'd hear from them until late tomorrow at the soonest.
I have bulging discs in my lower spine. Not slipped. Not torn. Not herniated. Just bulging. Fixable. I start physical therapy in a week.
Greatly relieved.
But want to start exercising again NOW damnit. I want to yoga. I want to go for a jog.
But the diagnosis hasn't made the pain go away. Hasn't made me able to lift the toes on my left foot.
And I'm afraid anything I might do other than a casual stroll might mess things up more.
Still. Greatly relieved.
