Pain update

Since you all love to hear me whine. :-)

- Girl Pain subsiding. Woke me up last night, but 2 Aleve let me sleep again. Installation of semi-permanent pain limiting device scheduled for a week from Monday. Cross fingers that it fits. I'm shaped wrong, so it may not. Either way, that'll be the Doctor Appointment from Hell. I have been warned to load myself up to the eyeballs in painkiller.

- Foot pain bad and getting worse. At car dealership yesterday, spent less than an hour walking/riding around before I had to start to hobble. Haven't run in at least two weeks. Not sure neuromas are the only problem. If I were sure, I might just go kill them... wish I were sure. Need to talk to podiatrist. Did I mention I ran into him at a restaurant the other day? Amusing!

- Base of right thumb behaving rather well lately. For a couple of days now, combing my hair has been okay. Thank goodness something's being nice! :-)

but we love you CJ, that's the important part. if we decided to only pick-n-choose what we wanted about you, we'd be missing out on a LOT. (i have a rheumatologist appt tomorrow, and because of you i'm more likely to stand up for myself to him)

*offers up some nice cheese to go with the whine*

Thanks. *blush* And I do hope you stand up for yourself -- he can't do a good job if you don't!
