Still out of the Game

Well I am still out of my game for a while.. I have finally made it off the crutches but still am having pain in the area that was fractured.. The doctors told me it could take 5-6 months to fully heal.. So not the awnser I wanted to hear... In the meantime I also found out that I have 2 herniated discs in my back on the L4 and L5 of my lower spine with the biggest bulging one compressing my sciatic nerve which has been causing all the pain and grief in my other hip so it has been a really tough couple of months.. I go in next week to start P.T and injections in my spine for pain relief versus having surgery on it.. I hope it works.... It has significantly imroved since I first started with it so I am confident that no surgery will be required.. I still really hurt with some things I do but at least I can stand to walk and sit and lay down without too much pain..

I was so hoping to be out running again by now but it doesnt look like that is going to be in my near future. I still cant even go from a sitting position and go to run to go get the phone or chase my kids around without having pain in my fractured leg so I have a feeling its going to be quite a while before I will get my running shoes back on.. It really is quite depressing not to be out there running.. Whenever I am outside and go past my running spots I'm like oh man I should be out here running... It sucks.. However if I get the go ahead next week I think I am going to try and do my stationary bike and see how my leg will tolerate that so at least I can do something physical... We will see....

I so cant wait to get back out there and get my body back into some kind of shape....
