Been up Since 4 am...

I woke up this morning in sheer pain with my tailbone area. On a scale of 1 to 10, mine was a 9. I made it to the bathroom and came back out to try to sleep. Before 6 I gave up and went downstairs to take my pain med. I didn't want to wake Jeff up to get it for me at 4 even though I could have used it. I immediately took my med after getting downstairs and slept for maybe an hour.

My pain level is down to a 4.5 but don't ask me to stand or walk around too much today. I'm resting on the couch with my heating pad, my blankets, and my pillow to sit on. The kids are sick so they are resting as well today.

I had tailbone pain before my last surgery. While this pain has diminished dramatically with the number of days, I'm still having it and it can get very bad.
