I knew I said I was going to keep health issues to another blog but when something like has just happened to me I feel compelled to share this information because these are procedures mainly performed on women. It is the dreaded steroid shot. Women appear to be more likely to get sent to a pain management doctor for certain arthritic pain. I know when I had my first son during labor there was severe pressure on my back because he was coming out face up. I was so tiny weighing a mere 95 lbs when I was three months pregnant. I gained 60lbs with all my pregnancies but because I was so young I recovered quickly. It was my daughter who gave me major problems gestational diabetes and major back problems. I spent everyday in the pool like a beached whale because my back hurt. After she was born I did not recover as well I got down to 130. Was ok there. Got divorced and lost 10 lbs. Got remarried and gained 20. But still I was ok. I stayed at around 140 for years until steroids came into my life and I gained like 30 lbs but then there was Lyrica which added 20. Now, I am at 190. That was not ok. I never got back. I ended up at 170. I accepted it but consistently felt like I was dieting. Then nervous breakdown which put on 20. I ended up at 190 again but dieting got me back to 170. Now, I've had some serious back problems. I let this doctor hit me eight times with steroids each time in a different place promising relief. I haven't gotten it and now the SOB has decided he can no longer treat me because I took two extra pain pills in a month. I am really frustrated and in bed a lot. Last night we went to Temple and BAM! I hit a hole in the concrete and fell flat on my ass. Not good. I got up and thought I was ok. I should have just stayed there and let paramedics pick me up. So, I am going to head to the hospital soon. I just should have never gotten up. I am going to post two posts I had scheduled for tomorrow and Monday today and hopefully I will be home tonight. I've just been going through this steroid crap for a couple of months. Oh, and while I been waiting downloading pictures for next month's possible Hall pass I updated February because poor Sebastian, I only gave you one pic. That is not fair so look for that too.
If I the doctors decide to finally surgically fix my problem which is what I need. I will still send some post from bed. My husband will just have to learn how to take pics. He owes me since he has been a real dope for the last six months. Now, that he is in another job he trying so hard but NO, I owe him two months of misery and if he can handle it then he will be back in my good graces. If I have surgery I can't have sex for a while anyway. I know against what said on Facebook when I said that denying your husband sex when you are mad also denies you, so make up and make love.
Ciao for now,
Patty
