Hello friend,
Just a quick post to say I'm so overwhelmed with everyone's generosity and thoughtfulness.
I never expected the amount of emails, facebook mail, text message's and twitter replies, that i have received from friends that i have spoken to recently, friends I haven't seen in ages and new and unknown friends since I posted last.
I just want to say a big Thank you! to you all.
It really lifts me up when things like this get so shitty and depressing. All your comments and thoughts have been taken and stored away for another rainy day! But don't get me wrong I'd love to have more! ha ha your all beautiful people for what you say.
QUICK UPDATE: I didn't end up going to hospital the other night/day. I went to my local GP instead and he doubled the amount of Oxycontin I'm on. So things are slightly less painful but I'm a little bit more sleepy and a little bit less able to focus. I'm also on a quarter dose of a medication I was on a few months ago, but I had every single side effect listed so I stopped it. lets hope a quarter dose of topamax wont have the same problems.
- I dropped mum off at the airport last night. Unfortunate timing for me and my pregnant cousin (who is almost due), but mum and her sister had booked a 10 day holiday in Thailand. So I'm navigating around home on crutches (sometimes), and trying to look after the cat and the dog. It does
n't sound too hard you'd think, but if you have met my dog, you know he's not a real dog, he thinks he's human but I love him all the same.I see my surgeon on Monday and another doctor on Friday. hopefully ill have more info by Monday afternoon. all I know so far is that the MRI I had, wasn't exactly what the doctor had ordered (I was supposed to be injected with something but wasn't), but it didn't show anything obvious, which is unfortunate but somehow expected. I know that to clear my mind and prove that its neuropathic not mechanical, I would need a fluoroscope MRI where the inject stuff directly into the hip joint. each time Ive had one its shown the problem. The only issue with this is that it is EXTREMELY painful, but has the answers. You see I know the surgeon is going to refer me onto someone else, but in the end I have always gone back to him, he's done this special MRI and its proven what Ive been telling them the whole time. Lets just wait and see.
'I hope to one day be able to see the whole tree on the other side'
