Yesterday, when I took Dusty to his neurology appointment we were told time to replace the batteries in his VNS device. Yes, I know… it is just a simple little surgery to change the batteries. Let me explain why I just…
Originally posted 2019-10-25 11:00:14. I had to go see a new neurosurgeon. They needed new MRI, CAT, Xrays, and all the work. Done most of that. I started physical therapy yesterday. Funny thing is she is the same physical therapist my husband had for his knee. So working with her was easy. Now that I have had the new films I am eager to see the surgeon to know whether or not they will be…

The Virus, Mold, And Germ Destroying Refrigerator Air Purifier https://bit.ly/2THPYFu Last week, my primary doctor put in a referral to see a new spine/neurosurgeon. That appointment was this morning about an hour and a half away. I think I had mentioned in a post after the last injection in my spine that I started to feel more pain. I thought that the spinal injection reduced the inflammation and that would explain…
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…

I won this Wonder Maxi massage gun in one of Adoption First Animal Rescue’s fundraising raffles. I started working on areas that never seem to get enough time. My midsection, my stomach. I have had so many surgeries and alot of them have been in my…

Originally posted 2022-04-18 22:36:34. I finally had the evaluation for physical therapy for my neck today. I get there and the lady gave me the questionnaire to fill out and it also had the sheet to fill out to show where you hurt. You know “circle where it hurts, draw a line where it hurts.” Except this was for low back pain 🤦🏼♀️. I had to remind her this was for cervical radiculopathy. She had…

Originally posted 2021-12-16 13:25:26. My last post spoke about me being told I needed to have a fusion asap. After the MRI and nerve conduction study I went back to the the orthopedist for a follow up. Well… he left me so confused. He didn’t see the fusion as urgent anymore and then said I needed a carpal tunnel release surgery. I left there so freaking confused. I immediately contacted my pain management docs expressing…
Originally posted 2019-02-28 11:55:27. I know you’re like “there’s an upside to pain?” My theory is that means things aren’t completely dead in there. I might feel pain but once I don’t that could lead to nothing, paralysis, no walking, no feeling the touch upon my skin. That my friends is why I said the upside of pain. Ok, so as you know I had a medical procedure done last Wednesday. It was an epidural…
