That's the comeback on the back burner for a while then.
Last evening I as I tried to get up from a seated position I felt a pain in my lower back on the right side. I couldn't straighten up properly. Ended up finding it easier to get around the house on all fours, much to the amusement of the dogs!
After a very restless and painful night I couldn't get my pants and socks on without assistance this morning.
Ibuprofen taken last night and this morning and once I have got myself upright I am able to walk/shuffle around.
Looking back at yesterday I was lifting a few 60 litre bags of compost about and also up and down ladders clearing gutters and putting up bloody Christmas lights, during which I was probably reaching out too far.
I can only think that during those activities I have pulled or strained something but cannot recall any discomfort at the time. Don't think I'll seek any medical attention at this stage but keep taking the Ibuprofen for a couple of days and hope it settles down.
Anyone got any tips, apart from don't put Christmas lights up in November?
PS What makes it worse is that it is a glorious day and I had planned a Grand Fondo for today. Bugger
