Hi ALL,
First have to say I'm so grateful to have this community. I read your posts and I feel like I'm getting to know all of you personally.
I'm new to pn journey and because I've educated myself as much as possible from this site (no sitting) &Miralax my pain has been relatively mild. Last few days Sat, Sun, and part Monday almost zero pain. Yesterday because feeling good, I decide house really needs cleaning. Since getting this condition I've really been slacking on housework. I've been babying myself hoping nerve gets it together.

I don't feel like I did any Herculean job cleaning my house (no moving furniture) or lifting anything heavy. Just dusting, sweeping, moping. I did do some bending, picking up sweepings and such, but nothing I thought was so outrageous! Well by the evening I paid for it! I got a new pain I never had before! A deep shooting pain in the left side of my pelvis. That is the side my nerve has been giving trouble from the beginning. This shooting pain would come and go, but when it came it was enough to stop me in my tracks! Now I have a caring husband (retired) who says let me know when you have to pick something up. I would feel guilty every time I have to ask. It seems to me ever since I got this condition everything is on the floor, socks etc. or I drop everything & have to bend to pick up. I guess I did bend a lot prior to this condition but never thought about it

. Oh I miss my old life, sitting, bending, cleaning, etc.
Today no shooting pain just feels raw inside tg. I know I could get one of those grabby thing for picking things up, but It seems like I would have to walk around with it hanging off my neck (like a necklace)
