I had pain and didn't know why or how for the first time on my 30th birthday. Now my body has been wrong for a few weeks and I have done something to my sciatic nerve during a (perceived) completely normal right hip rotation. I feel soooo old because of this restriction of movement.

Walked up to my physio even though it’s incredibly painful to walk because I didn’t think I’d be able to get parking (I was right, no parking).

It’s normally about a 5 minute walk as it’s only a couple of streets away. Today it took me 15 minutes. I actually thought it would take me longer so I am 10 minutes early for my appointment. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Goddamnit, I hate being in pain and having to pay money to fix my body because it decides it doesn’t want to be normal.

I don’t mind being weird in other ways but if my body could stop being weird, that’d be great.

Oh, and if you ever want to know what it’s like to have an electric fence wire running through your leg, just get yourself a pinched sciatic nerve.

For anyone who thinks they did something embarrassing at work today, let me offer this up in comparison:

I was taking a bunch of high school kids for school sport and stepped backwards off the lowest balance beam in the gym (it’s literally 10cm high) and, because of my stupid sciatic nerve being stupid, why whole leg collapsed and I literally crumpled to the floor.

Luckily, the kids were concerned and not amused.

I have another 4 hour shift ahead of me and I cannot use one of my legs. I cannot climb stairs properly and live 3 flights up.

Can someone come chop my leg off please?

Here I am, sitting watching my son do his softball training while I should be training myself, but I can’t because of the pain in my hip and leg. And it’s really weird feeling all the muscles along the nerves path twitching with spasm after spasm.
