I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers on Tuesday hon that all goes real smooth and that you’re in and out in no time at all and without incident. Be sure they keep your pain under control while you’re recovering. Any idea how long you will be in the hospital? Will you have access to the internet while you’re in there? Just wondering how long until we will hear from you and get an update?
I start my treatment a week from Tuesday. I have to do something eevo or it will render me unable to use my right arm and hand soon (my dominant hand). It is also getting into my neck, face and scalp pretty good too. The legs have been an issue for years, and the spread has been gradual all over for years now, but the pain in my upper body over the last few months is really bad. So rather than have it consume me, I am going to start to try some things other than just oral meds.
Again, best of luck to you on Tuesday!! I will be pulling for you!  Vrae |
Thanks,you are always so kind and thoughtful,I know you always worry about us,well tomorrow I will get a call from the hospital with specific instructions about the procedure on Tuesday,so far, my dr told me it will be an outpatient surgery unless something came out the way,fingers cross ,I don't need anything else for now,the problem is that my scs generator is on my left side of my abdomen so they need to do some modifications for my laparoscopy and can't use robot as well , the incisions will be 4 but he also said that because he scs location he has to change the cutting areas but is a simple procedure according to him,to us is huge and big deal,we don't need any pain or discomfort at all,you are right,avoid pain during recovery.in your case,I'm sure you did all the research you could keep in mind,every body reacts different,I hope your body handles better the blocks,and even if this sound scary,watch some videos,like a said before,you will or might cry,denied the idea of getting then,but after all that's what next and you need to be prepare for anything,we are many patients that went through that procedure that we can support you,but is really very emotional every time you think in not been able to move or do at least a basic shore,I understand you very well,but also because I went in that situation before a assure you,sometimes dr rush us and make us believe that is nothing else outer,I tried medications,lumbar blocks,psychical therapy,acupuncture ,yoga light yoga still help me little bit,meditation also helps me, but is a mental battle just to Think how much you which to be not normal completely but at least feel fine,do what ever it takes but don't risk more your condition if you have any doubts just wait,you know,the heart has it reasons ,so listen to any sign,hope you get well soon,I will let you guys know as soon as an able how everything went to,and please,keep the prayers for all of us as usual and never let that light of that candle call hope extinguish ,we all keep the hope,one day we will be fine,no soon,but one day,blessings and biggggggg hugs.
