I am a ball of pain in a house of horrors

My sinuses are all plugged up and when I sneezed I pulled muscles in in my upper back. Probably not pulled but they hurt. Nine years ago when I got a complete physical to come to Canada the doctor told me that I was borderline hernia. That was the "turn your head and cough test". Every now and then, like last night, it tells me it's thinking about going out on me. I was on the sofa and when it leaned forward it felt like somebody had inserted a probe inside me and poked the inside of my navel. I'm trying to think of a delicate way to say it wasn't my bum. I really should go see the doctor and see if it can be fixed before the breaking point. You just know that it will be at the most inopportune time. Like that dancing with the stars audition or in the middle of some therapeutic session where the pain will leave me unable to utter the safe word.

Oh, and the house of horrors part? Both grandkids have some kind of stomach bug and are flowing at both ends
