Today didn't start out so well.  I was supposed to wake at 7:30 am to take my first pain pill and then reset my alarm for 8:45 am to get ready to go out for my fasting bloodwork.  Instead, I woke at 10:30 am...in lots of pain, pill not taken, alarm shut off, quite annoyed and way late.

 
So I took my pill, set my alarm for 30 minutes and went back to bed waiting for it to work.  And that's when I discovered that for the first time in the week since I got my SI joint injections, I could actually lie on my back comfortably, without screaming.  Woo-hoo!
 
I did get up 30 minutes later and puttered around for another hour or so until I was ready to go out.  Not only did I get my labs done, but then I even made it to the pool for my PT which I haven't been able to do for the past 2 weeks due to knee and back pain.  And I was able to do all my exercises.  Double woo-hoo!
 
I am actually feeling a bit better today overall than I have the past few weeks.  Maybe the Orencia I had on Tuesday is finally starting to work.  Maybe it's just random.  Anyway, I'm going to try not to overdo it, because I know what happens then.
WoooHoooo!  Suzanne!  You go girl!
