I cannot even believe I have been dealing with all of this since OCTOBER ... its been almost 5 months.
And to top it off, now the pain has moved from my left side to my right side (making it nearly impossible to do anything) ... today has been one of the worst days I have had in a long long time

The pain has brought me to tears a few times today, the ant-inflammatories I'm on aren't doing anything to help.
Next steps will probably either be cortisone shots or surgery ... and I'm nervous about going either direction. I will find out more when I speak to the doctor.
I'm just so frustrated and want to go back to living a normal life, and be able to enjoy newlywed bliss.
My appointment is early tomorrow morning ... and it would help to know I'm in your thoughts

UPDATE #1: My appointment was supposed to be at 8:50. I got a call at 7:15 this morning that my Doctor has the FLU and wouldn't be in today ... so we rescheduled for tomorrow afternoon.
A few hours later, I got a call from his office again ... saying that he got worse, and won't be in tomorrow. He's not in on Friday ... so now I have to wait until Monday afternoon to see him

And I was only able to get that appointment because they extended his Monday hours ... when I told them that I'm in a lot of pain & need to see him as soon as possible.
I have no clue how I'm gonna get through the rest of the week & the weekend

UPDATE #2: They were able to call in a prescription to get me through the weekend.

Definitely helped to take the edge off for now. I will update again after I see the doctor on Monday ...
