I decided to come back to Orange County as there were no jobs in Victorville. Plus I was starting to have pain in my upper right butt check (which I have now found out is called your piriformis muscle - muscle that is inside your hip bone).
I got lucky and got a job with a company I use to work with before and I am still working there.
But...The pain in my piriformis starting becoming more painful and all I could do is wait 3 months until my insurance kicked in to get any help (medical wise). Ugh!
As soon as my Medical kicked in I went and saw a doctor. First they said it was my piriformis, then bursitis, then my sciatica. It took them almost 3 months to realize I had a very large herniated disc. I kept asking for a MRI but they kept saying no lets do an X-Ray. After trying several different options like physical therapy, chiropractic, decompression and a few others (can't remember). I decided on having surgery done. My herniated disc was 23cm, they said that is the largest they have seen in a long time. It wasn't just out to one side but all the way around. The pain was becoming unbearable.
More to come..next post
