I had to call the doctor to my house because I couldnt get out of bed! they said my spine had sloghtly slipped so all my muscles around my spine are pushing them back in, they prescirbed me three really strong pain killer, they did have side effects however because the medication is so strong; I fainted the first time I managed to get up which was still very very painful! Thanks for your advice! :)

You might have a pinched nerve - that’s extraordinarily painful. I’m just guessing, though …

If you’re in that much pain, you really should go to the hospital so they can at least rule out any serious conditions.
