Wednesday, November 17
Hi Everyone. Keeping busy with Dr. visits. I went to pain management where I received several trigger point injections in my back & side to try to alleviate some pain. Unfortunately, they gave me a very strong pill in the recovery room which made me sick for two days. I know they are trying to take away the pain, but I just can't tolerate the strong painkillers. Today, I went to the shoulder surgeon who injected my shoulder. I now have a frozen shoulder because the pain was restricting my activity. I will start physical therapy to try to regain some movement. They don't want to be very aggressive due to fracture risk from the osteoporosis. I'm going back to Pittsburgh in December to see the scleroderma specialist. They have created a scleroderma research center at UPMC, all of the latest info on scleroderma. I sure hope they have something out there that might help me. Carole, thank you for the gift card. I miss you & everyone in Surgery. Happy Thanksgiving, Linda

Hi Momoo, I haven't been on here for awhile. I want you to feel better. I love you. Bye Bye!
ReplyDeleteNice to see you on here again, Mom! You need to keep people updated, everyone asks all the time how you are doing. I tell them if it wasn't for all the pain (and the not eating, of course), that you'd probably be doing much better. :) Let's hope all the injections work to give you some relief!! Love You!
