I...I am sorry to hear about your back pain Valerie. I hope that something can be done about it. It can be hard to persuade the doctor to book you an MRI but that really might help. Have you incidentally thought of having a "standing desk". Your back is in a more natural position if you stand. It's one of the things that Victorians got right, many of their clerks who spent all day at Jenny Woolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16881781466502273314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8984234400935984998.post-10936409894741905542019-07-28T17:02:47.634+01:002019-07-28T17:02:47.634+01:00My back plays up at time.

The agony of the pain can be devastating. I hope that, with rest and care, that you'll eventually be able to sit at the laptop again.<br /><br />I have had two serious spinal injuries that never healed properly, which cause me constant pain.

I just felt it. Please know that you will continue to be in my thoughts, sending you LOTS of love and positive vibes for a speedy recovery. But trust me, I understand your need to take a break because that's how I felt years ago when I took that long break from blogging because of that lung issue I was dealing Ronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17332843200079013172noreply@blogger.com
