Starting a Revolution From My Bed

[smishingtrip]

I hurt my back and am stuck in bed today. It's been hurting on and off for most of this week. I thought I'd pulled a muscle or something, and it seems that our crappy couch makes it worse. Every time I'd sit down, no matter what position I was in, and I'd get up from the couch I would be in a lot of pain. But it always seemed to ease up

Do you have benefits through work for things like Chiropractors or Registered Massage Therapists? They would be better for you than a general doctor. Just even the massage therapist.

Ugh, I get zero benefits because I'm not a full-time supervisor. It's ridiculous. I do have two coupons for a massage though, and I plan on cashing in one of those soon. I could probably go to a chiropractor through MCP, hey? I went to the walk-in clinic today and they just gave me a prescription for more powerful muscle relaxers which only helps me when I'm not working, as he said they'd make me loopy.

I've still got my fingers crossed for a supervisor's position in the next month or so, but if I don't get it, I've been thinking of going back to school to do office admin and I'd get benefits through being a student.
