The days I did I had to rely on people for a lot of things. There's a lot of standing, bending, walking... and pulling books off of the shelves is a nightmare when your back hurts. I don't think we realize just how much we lift all day! Yeah, take care of yourself. I didn't take anything for my pain, and the doctor was not much help for me, but some things that do help me are vitamins, walking (when you're up to it that is), and drinking water. I have chronic pain, but these things seems to keep the flare ups down. Hope you're feeling better soon! I had back pain around January, there were a few days when I couldn’t go to work.

I spent the weekend climbing all over the desk trying to put up Summer Reading decorations, so yes I'd agree with that. Take care of that back! I hope it starts feeling better soon.
