Hi everyone! After seeing an orthopedist regarding the MRI results on my
back (they found a few bulging discs), they've decided that the bulging
discs are not what is really causing my back and abdominal pain. They
want me to start doing physical therapy, just in case it helps, which I
have, for the next month. After talking with my gynecologist (the one
doctor who finally listened to me) about what the orthopedist said, they
have finally decided to do a laporoscopy. I'm definitely not thrilled
about having another surgery. I've already had 2 in the last 4 months.
But what else is there? I've had just about every test available, and
they have all come back normal. My biggest fear is that I will go
through this surgery, and they won't find anything wrong. Then where do
I go? In the meantime, my primary doctor has prescribed yet another
medication that is supposed to help with chronic nerve pain. I take so
many pills now that I think I'm starting to rattle when I walk. I just
hate taking all of this medication. Please say a small prayer for me
that the surgery goes well, and that they finally find the cause of this
pain. Thank you all! God bless! Christine Lake
