Stacey, I'm so sorry this has happened.
First of all, please try not to worry.
Stop exercising and stretching, in my opinion, if you can. I mean, if you have to exercise because otherwise you will hurt worse elsewhere, I get that. Gentle walks? Walking slowly in a pool? But if you can treat this as a kind of injury, I think your body is telling you to just let it heal by being still.
Do try and make time every day as often as you can to go into a deep, deep relaxed state, like a yoga nidra. Whatever gets you to that place of utter surrender, make time for that. I believe it is crucial for healing. At other times, send your body from head to toe the message that this pain does not mean an emergency, and that all is well and all will be well. Feel the endorphins your body produces gathering energy and mobilizing forces to heal.
Eat your nourishing foods and trust the power of this to heal as well. Try and indulge yourself with some shortcuts so you are not standing in a hot kitchen.
Listen to your favorite music that lifts your heart, watch only the silliest or inspiring movies. Don't research online, just get support and get off and get happy.
I've had flare ups of localized pain that made me feel so awful, so this is based on my experience, so please don't think I'm being too much of a bossy sister! The main thing to have I believe is faith that you can ride this out, since pain makes you feel like you are in danger. You've got to override that cognitively and with your behavior. And give yourself a lot of love and understanding: if you are so angry and afraid that is completely to be expected, and this too shall pass.
