Back Problems

I don't know what's going on with me lately but it seems that since I got that new bicycle seat I've had nothing but back problems.  It could be that I still don't have it adjusted right, I don't know for sure.  I'm sitting back in my desk chair with the vibrate turned on the upper back selection and it does help some.  Sometimes I go sit in the shiatsu massage chair and that just hurts.  I have to sit funny for it to even get to my shoulders.

What happened is a few mornings ago I wasn't wearing my bipap machine mask because sometimes I can't breathe with it on so I have to go without for 1 night.  So when I sleep without it I sleep on my stomach and I sleep so weird that it puts a crick in my neck.  So I can't put all the blame on this new seat but it doesn't help my back either.

Yesterday I went on my morning bike ride despite the bad neck/shoulder pain but this morning I decided I was in too much pain to go out so I stayed home.

I'm really thinking about going to the chiropractor again because I get massages 3 days a week and they make me use their gym which helps with my weight loss lol.  The last time I went there I think I lost 10lbs in 1 month from using their gym doing the machine exercises as well as the ball exercises.  Maybe that will help me out some then I can learn what exercises I can do at home on my home gym so I will start using that again.

The only issue right now is that I'm broke.  I mean totally broke.  I have $1.75 available in the bank lol.  So I can't take the bus there and they moved to across the street from the DMV which is a very long bus ride.  I wouldn't want to take my bike because well, I'm going there because of my bike and I don't have the proper locks for my bike yet until I get money.  So I'm kind of stuck until I get money.

I hope the pain will go away soon because I don't have any pain pills or the money for them.  I do have a couple ibuprofens still for my carpel tunnel syndrome and I'm seeing that doctor on Friday so hopefully he will renew that for me.
