Iced Donut

Originally posted 2023-06-03 17:08:39. This surgery seems to start off a bit different. Now… this may be too much info but majority of my netheregions is purple. This is what I have to sit on to be semi comfortable. I didn’t realize I needed to relive having a monthly cycle. 😩 I have cramps without the rest of it. I’m not exactly sure why I have cramps. I mean they moved my bladder I get…

Dreary Day

Originally posted 2023-05-28 12:05:06. It would happen to rain three straight days. I went to both my pre-op appointments on Friday and found out that someone mistakenly told me I could continue to take the naproxen and aspirin. I smell like eucalyptus lol. I have used my cbd muscle rub alot more today. I knew something didn’t seem right about that. I have never had anyone tell me that I could take them prior to…

Never have I ever

Originally posted 2023-05-19 09:00:00. Yesterday the anesthesia nurse for my upcoming surgery called for the pre-surgery instructions. Nothing out of the ordinary until she started telling me what medications I needed to stop and ones I could continue taking. My diabetes medication is normally not taken the morning of the surgery. Pretty normal. But she also said not to take it the day before as well. Now this was new to me. My diabetes is…

Not again

Originally posted 2023-05-17 11:54:32. Being my next surgery is May 31st I just need a little break. Now Saoirse needs to try and rest the “good” back leg since that leg takes the brunt of her weight in the back. Now we have been questioning whether we should have went ahead and had that bad leg amputated in the beginning. Is she going to be one of those dogs you see running over people’s feet…

What is wrong? No explanation from doctors…Please share

Originally posted 2014-05-13 12:51:47. Ok, this is more of a plea for help. It is sort of linked to one of the other posts I made recently. Here is the link to that post…http://throughourlives.com/2014/05/10/i-need-corrective-surgery-but-have-to-pay-over-7500-first/ Since I went to the ER the other day something seemed to changed. I am not sure if it is symptom to taking a new medication for pain. I had never tried this one. I know pain medications can make you…

😪😪

Originally posted 2018-12-30 10:31:43. My daughter calls me this morning. I hear the worry in her voice. She found a lump her breast. Ughhh. I can’t right now… just can’t 😞 I am hoping she comes home and I can go with her to the doctor to make sure stuff is getting done. Not that she wouldn’t push for it but maybe to give me more reassurance. One of my mom’s longtime friends had breast…

Unmatched Puzzle

Originally posted 2022-12-07 17:44:47. You ever done a puzzle that you swear the pieces just don’t fit? You put them together and they aren’t fitting like you think they should. They should be together, looking crisp and clean but they don’t. They have spaces in between them and some of the edges are tight fitting more than they should. My point? My body seems to be the puzzle in question. I have had so many…

From then to now

Originally posted 2015-06-17 18:24:50. My life has been moving so slow it seemed the past week or so. Yet no time for things that needed that extra attention. My husband had slowed to an almost halt and trying to motivate him is beyond frustrating. He has no idea some of the things I say or do are to try to motivate him. He has kind of just gotten into this slump. He comes home talking…

More than a pain in the butt

Originally posted 2017-09-29 18:27:12. Starting next week I have several months worth of physical therapy for both pelvic floor and my ankle. I had a steroid injection in my ankle just two days ago. Let me tell ya, that hurt! He used numbing medication but it still hurt. I cried all the way home. He had to put it near one of the screws and tendons. The arthritis has gotten really thick in there so…
