i can tell you first hand if you are taking pain meds dont lift. because from what i understand (it may not be true though) depending on what kind of pain medicine you take, it can affect your muscle growth. so whatever you are doing to workout may almost go out the window.

also when you are takin pain med you dont know how much you are messing yourself up even more. as you can see from the inactivity of my journal and other shit that i know first hand.

if you are banged up, take off. i know you also said it your insurance aint the greatest so it would be hard to get an MRI, but you should try to see what options you have. shit you may be abel to go to a free clinic and they may be able to help you get one i don tknow how it is where you live but sometimes you can get stuff like that where im from depending on how bad it is.

but if you have to take off do it for a while because i myself had a chance to just chill for a little bit and i wound up putting myself back for months
