Guest guest Posted June 15, 2002 Report Share Posted June 15, 2002 Debs in Fl. Just checking in to hear how your forced bedrest is doing. Has the pain gotten any better with the immobilizer? I sure do hope so. I want to say that some prayers are being said for you. Also the cabana boys better be waiting on you hand and foot!

Guest guest Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 Well, the Dr's appt was, interesting? To say the least. Seems I'm bone-on-bone and will need a total knee replacement. Meanwhile he injected a shot of cortisone into the knee (Ok now those of you on the CRAB drugs don't you dare shudder! You go through Much worse!) I feel 100% better thday. He said he does not know how long it will last, and and the next step will be some injections that will be given once a week for 5 weeks, and I think at that point, when that wears off, I'll need to become Bionic like n. Could be years though....funny thing is he said I'm really too young for it. Seems it is all related to Arthritis. I'm riddled with it. I know I was called "The Crystal Lady" for years, even had a shop with that name, but I really *don't* want to turn to stone!!! I have bone spurs on top of my bone spurs...my cartilage is turning to bone. But today for today I am feeling better and might even be able to go upstairs and tuck my son in tonight.

Do a search on Bio-engineered tendons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
