I am having pain in my right side, right lower back and down my leg Called the doc, she said its normal and I need to leave work and go home.... but we have no subs So I am attempting to teach a 4th grade class seated....
Gotta love the response of "yep, that's normal, can't do shit about it!"
I'm sorry you're stuck at work. Are the 4th graders sympathetic at all? My high school kids are usually pretty good if I say "guys, I just can't today so please work quietly".
Are there any kids that can be helpers and do the running around for you?

Odonata I hate when they say yeah there is nothing we can do and I am over here like IM DYING! I decided to let Bill Nye teach Science for 22 minutes so I can stay seated for a solid 22 minutes.

@kande818 thanks! Thankfully school is over in about an hour and half.. unfortunatly... hubby does cross country and that does end til 5 and then we have like a 2 - 3 hour commute on Fridays so we end up going to dinner and then grocery shopping so our commute is 20-30 minutes instead.

Same here! It would also save the "why are you back here?" comments from people who assume I can just sit out the start of the school year.
Want to hear something "funny"? My ML sub is also pregnant! The good news is that she will pick up full time for me when she's in her second trimester and I'll be coming back in at the start of her third.

They said they are pretty sure ligament pain and sciatic. All I know is pain. Now it's moving to the front. And back to the side. I just need to go home and get my feet up
