Guest guest Posted May 12, 2004 Report Share Posted May 12, 2004 Hey Lana, I'm pretty sick today with Larry's cold. Saw Ortho today, he won't increase my Oxycontin, he wants an ACL brace for my right knee, refused the wheelchair. Gave me a referral for a Dr. that specializes in hip arthroscopic surgery and repair as he does not do that. He will write a letter to my insurance company saying this is medically necessary, so they must provide it for me to go out of plan, then we'll do both knees after the hip is done. I just told him OK but no surgery this summer or early Fall. I wanted a break, and allow my shoulders to heal. He said that would be GREAT with him! I still need alot more strength in the right shoulder and arm still, it had the Bicep repair and rotator cuff repair in Jan. As for Pooh Pooh, we're gonna do a sonogram on her belly sometime in the next couple of weeks. It's hard to deal with so soon after Scooter died in Jan too! How's your neck this week? How's ? I just don't feel like reading all the mail right now. Love, Re: Just had a phone call from my mother who is home > > > Pooh Pooh is on Chemotherapy now. She's only 3 years old. > > > Poor Pooh!!!

I just told him OK but no surgery this summer or early Fall. I wanted a break, and allow my shoulders to heal. He said that would be GREAT with him! Well, that's a pooper, huh? Why won't he increase the Oxycontin? Can he give you something in addition TO it?? Are you getting a custom ACL brace? I have two, one is quite old. I don't wear them often, just when I know I'm going to be doing a lot of walking, or strenuous exercise. I'm sorry you're not getting any relief for your pain! I have added you to the EDSprayer list - I hope that's OK! I will be saying personal prayers for you as well, my friend! I still need alot more strength in the right shoulder and arm still, it had the Bicep repair and rotator cuff repair in Jan. As for Pooh Pooh, we're gonna do a sonogram on her belly sometime in the next couple of weeks. It's hard to deal with so soon after Scooter died in Jan too! Yes, they are as much family as anyone! I shall include Pooh Pooh in my prayers too! How's your neck this week? How's ? I just don't feel like reading all the mail right now. HORRIBLE today, . I woke at 3 am with a migraine and a horribly sore neck, with nothing to attribute it to except sleeping. Crap! I stayed home from work and slept until 12:30 p.m. I finally got rid of the HA. I went to therapy today and she did do a treatment, but couldn't get all the 'knots' or whatever out. She said she could probably get the rest Friday. I had Mike rub my neck tonight - it still hurts. I pray I don't wake up with another migraine tomorrow! This cervical stenosis is the shits.sorry for the bad language, but that's exactly how I feel! I sent you an email that Sis sent to me - did you get it? She's doing a little better, and will be going to the nephrologists this coming Friday. I told her to call me afterwards. I hope we BOTH get to feeling better soon, ! It's horrible not to feel good all the time! Much love to you, Lana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 14, 2004 Report Share Posted May 14, 2004 Thanks Lana, I meant to say my left shoulder rather than my right. I get them confused, since both have had too many surgeries this past year. I'm so sorry about your neck and migraine! I do indeed hope Mike can help you! If not maybe it's time for the Neurosurgeon eval. I feel like crap, shit! I don't mind cussing! Thanks for putting Pooh Pooh and me on your prayer list. Can you put my friend on it too? ! I get my new brace for my right knee next Tuesday. Lots of Love, S. I didn't get anything from " SIS " . But I just can't go through all the e-mail right now, maybe it's there and I didn't see it.
