Update

I just wanted to let everyone know how my PM visit went today. It was basically awesome. I didn't have to take the drug test that I was so worried about. We talked about my pain and the injections and how good they are working. I told her all the side effects that I've been having, weight gain, anxiety, crazy muscle spasms. So she gave me Xanax to help with the anxiety. I wish she could take away the 10lbs I've gained from the steroids!!

Since the injections are working so well she refilled my Norco but with a lower amount. I told her that I'm going to be doing a lot of walking next week as I'm going to Disneyland for a few days. So she gave me enough to cover that if I need it. We also talked about what would happen if the injections wear off. She said we could try compression but it's hard to get insurance to pay for that.

I'm getting my last injection this Friday and I have a follow up with my PM doctor in a month. So I'm really hoping that these last me a long time and I can get my life back. I hope everyone else is feeling good and had a good Tuesday!

HOORAY!!

I'm so happy for you!! How fortunate that you didn't have to take the drug test and now you can enjoy feeling good again. I'm very excited that you get your final injection this Friday and very glad that you have had such wonderful results from them.

Thank you for sharing some REALLY great news with us. It's such a nice way to end the day.

I hope you have a great time at Disneyland and enjoy all of the rides and all of the fun at the HAPPIEST PLACE ON EARTH!!!
