As of now it's been 4 days and even with muscle relaxers, pain killers and anti-inflammitories it still hurts. Here's the story: 4 days ago my last call was in the morning for a woman that fell outa bed and couldn't back up. Just a normal home assist and all would be better in about 15 minutes. BTW I'm a rescue driver FF/EMT for the city FD. Anyway we get there and assist tha elderly female back into bed and all is well. After getting off duty at 0800 I come home and go to get my bags out of the truck and POW my back goes out and I fall to the driveway. I have felt this pain before and it usually goes away after a couple days. But... so far I'm still in pain. My duty day was yesterday and I was advsied to go to our workmans comp clinic and then go Monday to see the WC Doctor. That was a very long 3 hours of my life. All in all I feel that it being this painful for this long I have seriously injured my back to the point that I have bulging disks somewhere. I'm only 43 and yet my back feels like it's 80. Guess I'll know more this coming week. Thanks letting me ramble here and just wondering if anyone else has experienced this pain and what did you do about it.
