When you get this tomorrow morning, it’ll be Tuesday. I am high as balls right now on pain medication, and I’m trying to (rather successfully) take advantage of the 80% lack of pain I’m feeling at the moment.
Granted, my head is currently alternating between floating like a balloon and heavy like that balloon is full of lead. So, I apologize in advance if this isn’t as coherent as I think it is right now, as I type.
Let’s see… where to begin?
Back Issues
On Friday, I had the last of the four-shot series for my lower back in anticipation of the Radio Frequency Abalation (RFA) for the siactic nerves. This procedure is will basically ‘burn’ the nerves, so I won’t feel the pain, and it can last up to 2 years.
To tell you I’m looking forward to a date when we go to my follow-up appointment on Wednesday is an understatement. The idea that I could be pain free before May is amazing.
Not Cancer
As of this moment, I do not have cancer. At least nothing they could see in the ultrasound pictures… that they didn’t read until I called on Friday!! What is causing the obnoxious amount of pain in my nethers is fibroids.
Yay?
I mean, it’s not cancer. So, yay. We are going to talk to my doctor on the 21st to see what happens next. Honestly, I just want to yeet my uterus, so that’s what I’ll be asking for.
Pain-free (minus fibromyalgia) by summer? Yes, please.
Okay, I’m Fading
The heavy is winning, but since I brought you along for the craziness that is my medical nonsense, I felt I owed you an update.
Love to you all!
Love,
Connie
Glad it is not cancer. I hear that fibroids can be incredibly painful. Hopefully now they that know what it is, it can be treated. Fibromyalgia sucks. I was kinda sorta diagnosed with that a few years ago. I would like to find out for sure if I do have it, but not really. Hope that makes sense.
