Day 603: In Less Pain & No Longer Scared

So an overdue update from my last entry...

After all of my tests came back, it was decided that I have a bulging disc, narrowing of the spine, and severe inflammation of the SI joint. Honestly, I was just glad to get some answers! I have been in PT for a few months now and also had SI joint injections. The injections provided minimal relief, but the PT seems to be really making a difference! I get down because of how far away I am from my fitness goals, but I'm still chugging along. A few months ago, I couldn't even bend over at the waist, so I'm trying to remember that these "baby steps" are pretty freaking huge!
