Post-op joint pain revisited

[Guest guest]

Well, I went for my 6 week check-up on Thursday, My OS can't figure

out why I am having so much pain. He was honest and said he has never

seen this and will consult with his associates and mentors and cell

me. I currently can open about 12 mm. I was up to twenty before the

pain started and I think it is going to the other joint now as well.

In the mean time he sent me to PT. I started today, moist heat,

ultrasound and some myo-facial stretching later I will start some

exercises. It was not bad when I was there but quite painful

afterwards.

To make all of this worse I start back to shcool next Monday. 3

evening classes to add to my 40 hour work week and everything else.

I've thought of withdrawing this semester, but I am so close to

finishing and the classes that I need are hard to schedule.

I guess I have to just " grin and bear it " .

Oh well, at least I can come here and vent when things get to be too

much.
