Hi everybody.
Sunday night- ER for pain meds
Monday- ER for pain meds
Tuesday- homes most of day, 4:20 CST and the pain has hit the biting level and I can't take it any more. I called the doctor and they have no openings until tonight at urgent care. At urgent care, they are going to going to send me to ER. I'm a little scared Yes, I have people I can call. This is getting old. I'm feeling that I am burdening people right now. Please help me keep my chin up and smiling? :)
Musicspedmom, thank you so much for being here with us. I know that you can keep pushing forward, as you are so strong. You are in my thoughts and prayers. I am sending you tons of healthy healing energy. Please keep sharing with us, we are here for you.
So it is Wednesday and the pain is so bad! Thank you Lord for my neighbor who came through and brought me home! Thank you Lord for the Deacon and his wife, our Parish nurse who drove me car home and saw me inside, safe and sound!
My doctor is on vacation this week (bummer). I think the other docs are scared of dealing with this. I do have an appointment with a pain management doctor, that I have used before. If he will agree to give me shots in my back and two trigger point injections I think we might be on to something. This is a very compassionate man with a wonderful bedside manner. So I'm looking forward to Friday.
Today I'm just taking it as it comes. Tomorrow night my daughter is in a play at school and I don't want to miss it for the world. So I will lay low.
The one thing I am really sad about, I'm not able to work right now. I am a person that needs to work, I live on my own, there is no one to help me. I really take my work seriously. So, there is a hole in my heart that used to be filled up by work. I'm really facing the possibility that I may have to quit this job at the end of the year and find something close to home.
Musicspedmom, how did your appointment go on Friday? How are you feeling now? I hope a lot better. Sending you tons of healthy healing energy.
My appointment Friday, they weren't able to do anything. But I'm going for an MRI on Wednesday and hopefully a shot of cortisone on Thursday or Friday. I hope and pray!!! Today is Sunday and the weather in Chicago continues to be rainy/cold/windy and my pain is a ten. I made it through 24 hours with 2 Norco because I had my duaghter. We went clothes shopping and then to church today. She had me playing catch with her as I sat on the couch. Hats off to her for keeping me active. But I'm in pain- the pain where you doubt yourself, you know that you only have about $100 left in your checking account, the disability guy I have this time around who takes care of the payments or should I say does nothing, since I do all the work for him is a ****, it is all just piling up with the pain today. I just get really scared of what is going to become of me. I don't want to move home...I can't move home...I have a daughter here who needs me ( I'm sorry, I think I just need to rant). I 'm scared and in pain. somebody slow me down, I think I am my own worst enemy right now and I know this no matter how many times I go down this road, I know it. I can be my own worst enemy. help me.
Musicspedmom, I am just so sorry about your pain and I really wish that I could take it all away. I know that things will get better for you, please have faith in that and know that. I know at a time like this it may be difficult to envision that, but I just know that things have to improve. What are the options for you financially? Is there any type of government aid? Do you have any family and/or friends who can help you during this time? Please know that I am here to help you in any way that I can. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Hi there,
Things are better. Working on getting my disability money. Still fighting with the man so-to-speak. Had MRI today, so I'm really sleepy now from all the drugs they gave me. But otherwise good. I'll take it for now.
Thanks!
I can imagine that you are feeling drained after today, please take good care of yourself and get lots of rest. Please keep sharing with us.
Just wanted to update you, doing much better today. Going in to my daughter's school today. Just for 1/2 day. Also when I called disability bozo's today I got my old claim agent! he was wonderful processed claim with me on the phone and will call me tomorrow- praise Jesus! Let's cross fingers and hope he does. I have a feeling he will. All of the paperwork did come in and was sitting in the account (digitaly) the other guy went on vacation and didn't tell me. He never called me yesterday like I asked him to- this could have gone a whole week more!!! I swear I just saved myself. This second agent has always been wonderful! I have never had a problem with him! Please pray with me that I will get paid soon!
Happy Easter Sweetie!!!! Love ya!
Oh my goodness, your update made me so happy and made me smile from cheek-to-cheek. I am so so so happy for you! This is all so fantastic; you will be spending time at your daughter's school, and you had a good call with a disability claim agent. I know that you will get your claim processed and it will all turn out so positively for you. I am praying and sending tons of positive energy; I know that you will get paid, yes you will. Please keep me up-to-date on what's happening. Wishing you a magnificent day!
Hi there,
I'm glad I made you smile! I'm home doing course work and guess what, I got a partial paycheck today for my part time week! I heard from work today and I should be getting a deposit from disability tonight!! Had a great day yesterday, maybe overdid it a little, but I don't really care. It was great. I'm on the couch taking it easy. Throat is a still a little sore today, and it's cold and rainy in Chicago, again. Oh well, I'm choosing to do well today.
Have a wonderful Easter and I will chat on Monday!!!
Love ya!
Happy Friday! So excited that you received a partial paycheck and that you'll receive a from disability, that's so fantastic. I knew that everything would fall into place for you. It's all on the up and up from here. And, it's good that you're getting rest and relaxation today after a busy wk. Have a beautiful weekend! Happy Easter! Big hugs and lots of love.
