It just went

For no obvious reason my back seems to have seized up. It's okay as long as I don't move. At all. 

I am expecting a food delivery between four and five. It's five to four now and I'm thinking that perhaps I need to start making my way to the door ready. 

It started in my first exercise in my class today, on my very first step up. Then it improved and I have been moving most of the time since until I sat down about half an hour ago. And now it's gone. 

And Husband is at the dentist's so I will have to carry my shopping in. Okay, definitely going to stand up and start moving now. See if I can get some oil in my muscles or whatever they need.

I could be gone some time.

Oh dear! I hope your stiff back clears up soon!

Ugh! Much sympathy to you! I have back problems occasionally and can appreciate how you have to think about doing and going.

90% of back pain can be lessened with stretching. Usually for the lower back, if you can force yourself into a deep squat position with knees touching (or close) that sort of stretch is usually the most helpful. Hold that squat for as long as possible…. Even a few minutes if you can. Then repeat occasionally through the day.

Let us know how it goes. This sounds miserable.

Poor you! I hope the problem takes care of itself after a good sleep tonight.

Thanks all. Felt better this morning but sitting at the computer seems to make it worse. I shall try to do some squatting as PipeTobacco suggests!

Oh gosh, Liz, I know too well about back pain! I hope it's muscular and it eases soon. Take care! Hugs...

oh Liz, I hope you managed all right. When I go shopping I pack everything in more bags than I need so that I can carry them more easily.
