Peggy I hope your appointment goes well. Keep the faith, my family just
laughs at me, (which is sometimes more frustrating). Our families probably
have it as bad as we do (WITHOUT THE PAIN), just putting up with us. Do
they have you on any antidepressants?
I had my appointment with pain clinic yesterday. They changed my
anti-depressant to SERZONE, don't know if it'll work the EFFEXOL gave me
migraines (2 in a 5 day period). They did a sympathetic nerve block for my
right leg. WHY? I don't know. The nurses told what he was going to do by
the time he got in there I was about out of it ( not enough that I didn't
know when the needles were going in and out, almost 20 shots), I had blood
all over the back of my panties from the needle holes. Now I have eight
"golf ball" size places (four on each side of my spine in the middle of my
back). I can't tell which hurts worse my gut or my back. They suggest ice
for the pain of the area or heat. Both work, but only while it's there.
I did try to get them to sign for a temp handicapped tag for the car and "he
don't do that", Another co-pay for my pcp. I don't want another surgery, I
know I'll have to, that's o.k., if it works. Heck I guess it'll be o.k. if
it don't. (So much for my faith, LOL)
