Guest guest Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 Hi Char that is hard to take I know I had my regular dr give up on me too. Then I went to several dr's who would not help me. One told me I was not in enough pain to do anything for, another told me I wasn't in pain grrrrrr that one really made me mad. But I kept looking and I think you should too. Go find another dr and keep up the faith. Its sad but he may have to think about changing his way of life. Has he considered that?? Or hiring people to work for him and give himself a break until he feels better. Will keep praying for you both.

It's very sad. > > Terry swears it feels like a raw nerve feeling but the dr's dont agree. They said it is just normal wear and tear for what he does for a living (window cleaning). But he has had his window cleaning business for 30 years and this just came on all at once. > I wish the dr's would belive us. But they never do. > > The costochondritis, the dr did say that eventually would go away but not if Terry aggravates it with the long poles he uses at work, but that is our livelyhood. > That pain is so intense sometimes it feels like he is having a heart attack. It has taken him to the ER several times and even had an angiogram over it. All was clear in that. > It's all pain. > > Thanks again > Char > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
