I think the new chair is going to work out. I still can't sit up straight, but leaning to the left, and resting my arm on the arm rest so far is preventing the shooting pains from my shoulder down my arm.
For dreamerbooks: Don't worry, my heart is just fine! Had an EKG recently. The pain is muscular, or maybe a pinched nerve, but not heart related.
Also, I didn't specify what kind of shots the doctor gave me. Wasn't cortisone. That goes into the joints. This was a muscle relaxant that lasted for several hours. But I don't remember the name of it, even though the doctor told me.
Actually, I'm feeling pretty good right now, and haven't had any pain med since this morning.

I bought a new toy for Banshee, but he wasn't much interested in it until I sprayed it with catnip. Then he was all over it. Funny. This is the first cat I've ever had that had any interest in catnip.
So, I'm gonna go try to catch up on mail. It's building up again.
