Re: In tears Help please - to Leanne

[Guest guest]

Leanne,

I'm sorry that you've had so many problems that so far haven't been able to be

resolved. Did the doctor find out what was causing your inability to urinate?

Is this somehow connected to your staph infection. I hope they were able to

give you something to help clear that problem out of the way.

If you can find a good pain management doctor he should be able to help you

with any pain issues that you have. The hardest part is finding someone

who's had enough experience with chronic pain patients to understand that

often narcotic medicinal help is the only thing that's effective.

I don't quite understand why the infectous diseases doctor would prohibit the

TP-ICT idea entirely, but I'm sure he knows more about this than I would. This

might be something that you could discuss in detail at your appointment in

Indy on the 12th. That's the same day as my grandson's birthday, too.

Perhaps you'll have good fortune for your birthday and get some answers that

can help you. If surgery is in your immediate future, please let us know!

Take care, and try to keep your spirits up. I know it's hard to do when you're

faced with so many problems, but if you can approach your troubles with a

clear mind and a positive attitude, whatever happens will be easier to bear.

With love, hope and prayers,

Heidi
