Have a lumbar spinal block on Thursday, next Wednesday some more testing, and then the following Wednesday some more testing. I'm not too worried...simple stuff...just stuff I can only prepare for so much.

Be takin care of that spine. One to a customer, you know. I been so there and done so THAT, and knowing this, I hope and pray all of your injection stuff and testing things go well, very well indeed!!

Hugs, for you and this room of full plates

Off to work. Thank you to those of you who have sent me PMs, messages on facebook and emails.... you guys have no idea how much it means to me to know you care. {{{{HUGS}}}}

This is the 6th or 7th....Maybe 8th. All I know is the last one lasted approximately 45 minutes and the rebound was the worst pain!!! That was about 9 years ago. My new pain doc asked if I would give him a chance, I agreed....though silently relunctant.

I really don't think there is much to ease this RSD pain....but we'll see.

Well, i'm off to bed. I drew the early appointment slot.

Hugs to all and sweet dreams!
Abbie

Sending prayers that this one works dear Abbie.

DITTO!!!

Two shots.... one on each side of the spine.

Did nothing for the pain in my legs but my back is killing me and I have one heck of a headache!!!!!

My rules when I left the doc was to go home go to bed put a heating pad on and not move too much. Mom finally found the heating pad after dinner....it helped a little but I think it was too late. It hurts to sit and walk!!!

Well I'm off to bed....gonna try the heating pad again....hope I don't fall asleep with it on.

Big HUGS and LOVE to ALL!!!
Abbie

I am thanking you for the love and the hugs...not the Dr apt news. Knowing that your RSD is the result of a senseless act of another makes it harder for me to get my head around it. I remain in awe of people like you, Mark and so many others who live daily with terrible pain and yet continue to reach to support others....such a lesson for us all..

I really need to bundle up and go outside and fill the bird feeders, scrubb the bird bath and refill it. Still hoping the blue birds will discover the meal worms..nasty looking things.(the worms, not the bluebirds.) Cold strong wind and light snow here. Then plan on making sour dough bread, bean soup, and lying on my butt in the bay window with a book.

So thankful to have a library branch about a mile down the road...if we had sidewalks out here I'd walk to it......in nice weather that is. Tried yesterday to duplicate the pie on a stick that I fell in love with in Florida...failed. lol

Mark I read about your frightening, dangerous drive in Texas...so glad you and your wife came through it safely. Abbie I am sending prayers about your test...sure you'll do fine.

Made the national news, not in a good way, when an airplane crashed in a home about five miles from us...two killed, one in the hospital..3 damaged homes, one demolished.

Hugs for the room....what's on your plate?

We made that same national news as that plane left out of Oklahoma and one of the people killed was an ex quarterback from the university of oklahoma

Both kiddos are home for spring break. totally loving it. Rebecca and i are going to get her passport today then go shopping.
