Oh, god, ita, I can't believe you have another pain source to withstand. So unfair! I hope, as always, for safe, effective and speedy treatment.
Love isn't brains, children, it's blood, blood screaming inside you to work its will.

Hubby has gotten (steroid?) shots for his spine issues, and they're generally good for a couple of months. Pills, not so much. Surgically, if the disk is bulging, they can shave it. Teppy had that, I think.
ETA: spinal issues can impact the weirdest places.

The surgeon removed part of the bulging discs, but there's still some intact in there.
I've heard epidural steroid injections are pretty effective for bulging discs.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Babybon is very good-- he's not sleeping through the night, but his sleep hygiene is pretty good. He just learned social smiling, which is so gratifying, I can't even say. He is getting more expressive lately, making more varied sounds. Very cute.
And we are buying a house! After six months of hunting we close in three weeks.

Already with the social smiling! Wow!
And congrats on the house

Whoo! That's a lot of good stuff, bon. Social smiling is very gratifying -- I think that's when they start to become less helpless yet demanding creature and more actual human being.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Dag, bon -- living the dream!
Jesus, ita, like you needed one more thing! Can you just get adamantium replacement parts for everything?

I'm glad the steroids helped, ita, and I hope they keep working for a good long while.

YES, also what Jesse said! Very much so.
