Hi guys,

I haven't been on much this last week, I've been working fulltime for the last two weeks and when I come home in the evening completely wiped out, all I want is to lie down. I like my job and I love to have that purpose to get up every day. I've had enough of being off work.

I'm still waiting on the pain relief from the SCS revision surgery I had almost a month ago even though my stim is working better, it hasn't helped with the lower back pain much. Two weeks after the surgery I went back to work fulltime.

Every time i try to take a step it's like as if someone is stabbing me around the part where I had the surgery, I still have that ring of pain around my hips, i still have spasms galore they are bad in my left thigh (bad leg) and I'm sleep isn't great. I get this awful twitching anywhere really when I am at rest and sometimes my entire body just jumps! It's frightening in the middle of the night a can tell you! I'm back to see my Consultant next week and I'll fill him in.

I'm feeling a bit down at the moment and I guess I just wanted to hear your words of wisdom and a hug. My hubby is great and he's trying his best but I know he hates to see me like this.

Love to all
