Well it has been very raining here lately and it is doing nothing for the pain. Since I last blogged I tried steroid injections, not a good ideal. Been told there is nothing anyone can do for me because to be honest every test that I have had proves out to be fine. So they see no reason for me to have this pain. I am becoming depressed more everyday because the pain is just to much to handle. I spend my weekends locked up in my house doing nothing but sleeping and using heating pads because I am so much pain I can't seem to do anything else. I look at women my age going to parks with there kids, participate in so many family activities that I just can't do and it just get's me more down. I have come to realize there is no help for me in the medical world and have now went into to just pain management. Not the hard drug kind but pain patches and Tramadol in low doses, which some day doesn't even begin to help with the pain. But I go on because I believe that sitting down and saying enough is not an option. My husband, David, has never done that with his 13 hip replacements and is a great motivation for me to keep going. He is also there when I hit my lows to pick me up and say keep going!
On to other news in the family my daughter Ashley had her Junior prom a few weeks ago and was beyond beautiful. She also this week applied for her first college and alothough all this also makes me sad I am a very proud mom! She has turned out to be a very talented young lady and I truly believe that if she doesn't let life get in the way she will be able to accomplish all of her dreams! Here photo from prom is above.
