My back is finally on the road to recovery. Even so, I was bullied into going to see a doctor yesterday despite my protests of being mended. There's no NHS here and a mere consultation costs about the equivalent of two days' work. Hence my protests- all my money is going towards Amazing Adventure 2008.
Anyway, I lay on the bed, with difficulty, in my pants. The doc then prods around a bit, I say ouch at the appropriate times, he bends my legs, fine, then he asks me to "clench my buttocks".
"-"
"Clench them please"
I clench
"Harder."
I add what I assume is more force, trying to make my bottom seem very clenched as opposed to just clenched. In fact, they're so super clenched now that my cheeks are in danger of being sucked into themselves.
He prods the general area.
Don't know what he was looking for but he didnt' seem to find it. I then had to walk about a bit feeling a little silly.
No matter, I'm just happy to be able to walk again! Tomorrow I shall go for my second run of the holiday. I'm so excited!!
