This past week or so, I have had an increasing amount of pain in my lower back. People that are following my social media are probably getting really annoyed with me harping on about my back, but as I am currently stuck in bed for a while, I have nothing else to think about.

Last fall, my mother developed a herniated disk and ended up having two injections and a surgery. Needless to say, she insisted I go see a doctor ASAP.

The doctor immediately said that it is pretty rare for a nineteen-year old to have a herniated disk, but alas, I am living proof that it is possible.

I had an MRI and I was subsequently scheduled for an injection (which is tomorrow so cross those fingers because I'm nervous).

Meanwhile, I'm on lots of pain meds and binging on chocolate and Netflix.
