hi Legz,
sorry you are still in such pain can't offer much except to say the astaxanthin I got (4 mg a pill) has eliminated the arm pain I was having and seems to be helping my husband (have him on 2 pills a day) who has degenerative disk disease, arthritis, and numerous back problems.

hope you feel better soon

Default The end of the story?

I'm digging up this old thread whilst on my search for pain management tips and wondering, Legz, did you ever find relief and what happened next?

Leggs FELL while walking her dog and almost ripped her foot off her ankle! Its been horrible and painful and she is now in a cast, and riding a wheel chair. They have her on big boy pain meds now, and since the surgery to reattach her foot to her ankle with screws, pins and the like she is really miserable. Will tell her you asked for her. Perhaps she will drop in.

So sorry to hear that. If that happened to me they would have to put me down. I broke my foot once. Well actually chipped off a piece of bone in my foot. I caught the heel of my shoe in my pants cuff and fell down the stairs. I was miserable with a cast up to my knee. I'll be praying for you. I hope it doesn't get too warm because the sweat inside the cast can get nasty. I hope the pain meds work and doesn't cause additional problems.

She fell again, and split open he incision. its infected anyway she said. so, she went off to get it closed. She has been thru the wringer lately.

She said to say hello, but she is up to her armpits in crocodiles and it will be a while before she can stop in.

Thanks for telling us Dej.

Leggs, you poor little sweetheart. What a nasty thing to have happen... OUCHY!! I guess MS is not enough punishment.

How is everything else going on in your life? DSO, DD, Stupid Dog?

I've missed you a lot. Don't you know that this is where you come when you are hurting? WHATSAMATTAWHICHU?

Healing thoughts and prayers are on the way. Feel better soon.

I told her you were all asking, but she is kinda medicated, and more than a bit grouchy, so she said is best to just say thank you and she will wander by when she can. its been a horrible ordeal on top of everything else. The pictures were gruesome! made me cringe.
