Back

[avram]

I was all set to do my laundry, bent over to pick up the basket — didn’t even pick it up, hadn’t touched it yet, just bent over — and something painful happened in my back, just above the left buttock. So I spent some time lying in bed, pretty much unable to move, and gradually recovered. I can now hobble around the apartment, go up and down stairs, even bend over and pick stuff up, but it still hurts, though not as much as earlier.

And my laundry is still undone.

Sorry to hear that. Did you bend your knees when you bent? I hear keeping the knees straight when carrying a load puts too much pressure on the lower back. Hope it recovers soon!
