Hi everyone, it's TK and it's been awhile!!

I hope everyone's pain is low. Mine has been lower than normal due to the still summer temps in texas. (90s today!)

I've been on Medicare since the first. This past year has been trying. My RSD leg has a bone on bone knee attached. Every shot (4 cortisone, 1 synvisc), every scope (1), physical therapy NOT water therapy (off and on the whole year) the synvisc isn't really helping. I wanted it to because I had my 20th surgery Monday.

My cervical scs is doing grand. It's working well, with no problems. It hits the right spots and works awesome.

I had my gall bladder taken out in June after I lost weight I didn't have to lose. I weighed 112. I got down to 98. I felt better, but I still had a list of foods I couldn't eat. Well, I had celiac's disease. Now I am completely gluten free and back up to normal weight. I cheat occasionally, but cheating when you have a disease takes the fun out.

Finally, my thoracic Stim stopped working after we were rear ended in 9/2013. I waited a YEAR for a fix. It was so painful. On October 20, they pulled the whole thing, and replaced. It is awful. It's like 2012 all over again. I know when I'm done it'll be great; it's just the constant pain everywhere, surgery, and starting over.

In the end though, I am lucky to be alive, and I know God has me!!

Just wanted to update and say hi!!
