Hi everyone
I just want ed those how talked with me over the last few Weeks. Having those done are not fun. Not like it was some major surgery that requires lots of recovery time.I do not like how my body feels afterward. It's funny how they tell you to stay awake and try to do "normal things"..right after giving you strong sedatives. LOL
But I did at least for the first couple hours. I did have a physical therapy appointment today! I'm glad I was numbed as I don't think I would've lasted an hour. It was more of an assessment than a regime but I have another appt on Friday.I really like this Dr. He seems confident and has taken recent courses with more detailed knowledge on CRPS. He sounds really positive and is going to be starting me on a TENS soon and is working with my anesthesiologist on treatment plans. I may saw WOW. I liked how smoothly it went. It would've been nice to know that he was gong to schedule a physical therapy appointment today.It was a little irritating as I couldn't drive myself and had to rely on others to get me from the Block @ 7:45am then home then to physical therapy @2
m then to pick my daughter up from daycare and back home. lol. But no hiccups there.Then of course I cooked dinner.Which I will say to any others waiting to have this Procedure done, plan on SOUP!And sounding a bit like a late Katherine Hepburn
As far as how it's working...well.I can't say "HALLELUJAH I'm saved" or :It's a Christmas Miracle" But I am getting some small relief. It's seems to be fading though. We can only tell in the next coming days.No one can call me a wimp though! Even as I'm writing this its starting to wear off more.So on that note I think it my cue to GO TO BED! Unfortunately I must go to work tomorrow, we'll see how that goes.
All in all I dislike this procedure, and how it makes you feel.Still only have the tramadol. Wish It would've worked better but oh well I have hope still.
