Ugh, I'm In Pain.

So I recently cleared off the unused desk to create a workspace for myself. Unfortunately, it's not a very comfortable workspace right now. I'm dealing with back and hip pain at the moment. I also had to buy an adjustable laptop stand to get my laptop screen at eye level so that I could keep my posture headaches at bay.
It's fixable though, or at least I think it's fixable. I'm thinking it's time for a new chair for my desk. I want one that's not as wide so I can push it in closer to the desk. I'm on a budget at the moment, so I'm going to check a few thrift stores first before ordering one offline. I don't want to put it off for too long though. I'm in pain now, ya know? This means I'm going to have to limit the number of thrift stores I check before just hitting up Amazon or eBay or something.
Sooo, hopefully I can find a decent one without breaking the bank. It's only my second full week back to work since Mom's passing, so I'm not really looking to spend too much on it right now. But I may not have a choice if I don't find one at the thrift store.
Anyway, I may need to move to the dining table or couch, which is going to defeat the purpose of creating my own little workspace, but I'm not going to be able to get any work done if I'm in pain either.

I am sorry to hear this Tammy.
I hope it eases for you the pain.
I can totally relate. I need a new chair also.

I had sciatica from sitting in a chair, it was terribly painful! My hip was in miserable pain, day and night.

@tammys85 I was on steroids for 10 days, to ward it off.
