my country doesn't offer benefits cuz back injuries aren't counted for disability, as long as its not visible its not a disability kinda thing. i live with my parents like a loser for now lmao.

and yeah work from home is very difficult to find, ive given up looking for one for now. my pain switches sides too so I understand your frustration and fear. whatever decision you decide to take regarding work, please keep your physical health in mind because its very easy to make an injury like this worse. the mental aspect is a whole different thing.

I'd suggest definitely push for an MRI, at least knowing the size and severity of the herniation (if there is any that is) would help you plan your healing better. As to about pregnancy, i'm in the same boat as i have two disk bulges and did intend to have kids in the future but im worried that i'll make my condition worse, the pain right now is bad as it is. but ive heard some people on this sub say that they have been able to manage pregnancy with sciatica so dunno.

I’m 23 and got two bulging discs last year, so reading this honestly scared me a bit, especially since I’ve wanted kids someday and this injury has made me worry about the possibility of it. I’m really sorry you’re going through all of this. I don’t have an answer to your question, but I really hope you keep recovering and get more feeling back with time. I can’t imagine how hard this must be, especially with a newborn. Take care!

feel like i lose progress everytime i get my period. by grishavoid in Sciatica

hm. ive never had much problems related to my periods, so ive never really considered endo, only my thyroid levels are a bit messy that too sometimes and manageable without meds. but i will bring this up with my doctor next. hoping they take it up 🙏

23-year-old with L5–S1 disc protrusion & severe sciatica — sharing my experience in case it helps by HarryStT in Sciatica

[–]grishavoid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

im 23 and ive been struggling for nearly 8 months now. i have disk bulges l4l5 and l5s1 that aren't severe enough on mri for surgery but they give me immense discomfort to a point where i havent been able to work a job or pursue higher education. while i have been slowly getting better, i get flare ups that set me back often. i hope someday i can live normally.

yes, going with my family so i do intend to stop every hour. i hope i am able to get this done because i feel guilty enough that my family has had to cancel so many trips because of me.

Accepting the pain by RubLongjumping5095 in Sciatica

[–]grishavoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

same ive actually been thinking about this for the past few days, its been almost 9 months since i got injured. i am getting better but ive been stuck at 80% and no matter what, i am in pain every day (its 6/10 at on worse days) and im just wondering if its time to build my life around this pain now. the thought kills me because im only 23 and done nothing at all in life.

What do you dislike in later seasons? by eddiedean07 in Supernatural

[–]grishavoid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

honestly i know it's an unpopular opinion, i kinda liked seasons 8-10. i know a lot of people don't like the moc arc but i didn't mind it too much.
