Hi Cutie friends! Trip to ER was a real trip!! This morning I have a hangover from the pain shot they gave me, but let me tell you within an hour it brought the pain level down to very tolerable and I slept 5 hours last night, straight through!! Got there at a little after 5PM and didn't get to see doc til almost 10PM...by then pain was unbearable!! Anyway, he did an ultrasound to check for blood clot and that was clear, he didn't feel I could tolerate an MRI with the pain level I was at plus the electric shock feelings make my leg jump when they come about every other minute, so he gave me heavy duty pain pills, anti nausea pills (to counteract nausea from pain pills) and mega dose of daily pred, then I am to contact my primary in 2 days to have her schedule an MRI.....so that is where we stand.....he feels it is sciatica (really!!) and the nerve is being compressed causing the pain (really!!) I told him that I read so much on the internet about it, that I am almost a doctor......he liked that!! So am going back to the recliner now to try to sleep off this hangover.....ugh!!!! Love to all and thank you for your prayers.......they are working!!! BTW, I got a beautiful plaid bandaid where they gave me the shot on my hip......Jim took a selfie of it cause it was in a spot I couldn't see it....LOL!! He threatened to put it up on the website......now isn't he hilarious!! NOT!!
Just a footnote here to this bandaid story.....it is missing...LOL...it was there this morning yet and when I went to take a shower after my nap, it was gone, so it is laying around somewhere.....will let you know when, where and if I find it.....the mystery deepens!!
Hugs
