I think I may become addicted to Ibuprofen..

Hello all! Again my bad for not blogging more frequently, altho I do leave long posts to keep you going. Hadn't been wanting to sit too long in front of my computer as of late, as I find prolonged sitting painful, due to this left hip of mine that doesn't know how to stay put after its been popped back into place. I woke up this morning (well, afternoon to be precise..I couldn't sleep due to pain until 5 am thereabouts), and I sit up and BOOM! I can't move my left leg without the sensation that a horse has just kicked my left ass cheek. Yeah. Good morning Stranger! BOOT!!! I am getting really sick of constantly getting adjustments, and it only providing temporary relief..some days, I'm still in pain after a treatment. It costs me 20 dollars per visit, and if I keep shelling out this kind of dough, I'll be pissed. I even purchased a $40 backrest for my chair, and it helps a bit, but the pain is still there. The pain also snakes around my waist and hits my stomach, so I always feel nauseous. So today I decided, fuck it..I'm going to the pharmacy to see what I can take to just take the edge off. Because I still need to work. I don't like to take pills whatsoever....and up to this point I've been dealing with the pain without meds. Now I figured I needed to live a little better with the help of chemistry.
So I asked the pharmacist what i could take...He said he could give me Tylenol 3's, but I said no because I'm allergic to Tylenol,and landing my ass in the hospital is not one of my life goals. So he shows me some Ibuprofen 300mg tablets. He said to take 2 every 6 hours. I purchased them and took 2 on an empty stomach, and within less than a half hour my pain was..........completely gone. Now, I realize dear Blogger family that pain is a symptom of a problem, but I can deal working with a limp, just as long as i don't have to feel the pain. So I felt alot better today, and am going to take them for a couple days, then lower the dose to one every 6 hours, to see if that'll be enough. The way I see it, spending 10 bucks for a bottle of Ibuprofen will save me 40 bucks a week to visit the chiropractor. I can do stretches and stuff at home to help realign my back, and of course, now I sit ramrod straight in my chair. So I'm doing what I can..and I think I really need to get back into shape. You know, I can walk (kinda gimpy) but I can't run. That sucks. But hopefully things will change soon. Gotta be optimistic eh?
Anyhoo, not much to report on in regards to work. Tho I do have a pet peeve..people who order a pizza last minute. Tonight I was hoping to close at 10pm...then someone phones at like 10:05 for a pizza. I say ok, make the pizza, put it in the oven..the phone rings. Another pizza. Then someone calls for a couple subs after these pizzas were done and picked up. So I didn't finish til 11pm. Grr. Oh well, I guess I got their money right?
Anyone else out there got a bad back? How do you deal with it? Any suggestions would help. Think I may need to pop another pill...pain's coming back again. Hopefully I can blog again in the next couple of days. Until then..
