Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Has the sun gone into hibernation?! Gawd! It's so miserable outside & so cold. This is why I'm writing in a warm colour today! I'm kinda glad I'm stuck indoors on days like this but that doesn't stop the utter boredom from being signed off work with sciatica. I'm awaiting referral to the hospital for physio therapy despite telling my GP that I've already had private physio which didn't work! I had to wait 7 weeks for my xray results due to a bodge-up by the hospital & at the end of it, nothing showed up anyway. Bloody NHS! They should've known to begin with that sciatica is a nerve problem & an xray wouldn't have helped. I've come to the conclusion that I will have to help myself & I've found a good website based in the U.S. I've downloaded a book which basically shows you how to rebuild your back. I've started the recommended exercises but it could be a long process before I'm better again going by the comments other sufferers have left on the messageboard. Ho hum! This is just the worst time of year to be off work :-(
Still, on the plus side, I've definitely improved my letters game on Countdown!!!
