Default Thanks everyone!

Well it wasn't that bad...the doc is so nice, good humor kept me laughing....to the point I was wondering if I should be holding more still! It was a brand new place with flouroscopy xray, done by anesthesiologist. I don't even really know him it was my second consult with the procedure, but He is a truly nice doc. The worst part was that initial stick.....then when it was done my leg was quite numb and him and his asst. had to help me to the recovery chair. I had to sit and wiggle my leg till I could walk out to waiting room on my own, well the assistant was holding my arm, but she said I would have to bear my own weight. That passed soon.....oh it did feel like he was doing little sticks here and there, I thought they just shot the stuff into the big hole they made. Too giggly to ask! Yay for happy docs!

He wants me to come back in a week for next one, I forgot to ask how many but according to their pamphlet I think they do three.....My back is a little sore, they told me not to bend over and pick up stuff,,,,,ice for first day, I was tired anyway from lack of sleep so I took a nap....still feel kind of out of it....listless...but I am having pms so who knows.

Definiately good place so far... whether or not it will help for how long, we will see. He said could last a year? I hope so! Thanks for encougagement. I wish I had the energy to work in the medical field! I guess I must be numbed up in there cause not having a pain flare...
