Okay. I just got back from my latest appointment. I will be getting the Epidural Steroid Injections. Not a problem, as I expected that.
My "bummerness", though, is at max. The Colonel told me that even if the injections work, I should not put intense pressure on my lower back.
Being Airborne is what has really kept me entusiastic about being in the Army.
This really disappoints me. I do not want to be in charge of Soldiers with whom I can not actively train. If I can't jump anymore, I might as well just submit my request for retirement.
