confused
Now I am totally confused. My doctor has told me I have a stress fracture in my right leg, most probably caused through taking the Arimidex tablets. She prescribed Protos to try and build up the bones. I only had a month's prescription as I was going to be seeing the onc.
So THAT"S why all the pain!
I have had so many tests and doctor's appointments that I think I must have paid for her new car by myself! But at least we have a reason for all that pain in my leg and why it is worse some days than others. I have an oedema and stress fracture and the beginnings of osteo....something. Rest is the cure but the cure won't be starting until next Monday as I have to go to work tomorrow! I have a seat to take with me and I will only be doing the serving from behind the till. The minions and Bob will have to do the rest! Oh, woe is me! How will they cope???!!!
too much pain
The last two weekends at work have been dreadful. The pain in my legs at the end of the day was so bad I could only hobble and the drive home was agonising. Even in bed I couldn't find a comfortable position so I took the plunge and made an appointment at the doctors. This morning I had the x rays and only minimal arthritis was found but the bones are a bit thin so the doctor then ordered an MRI and a bone density test. Had the MRI this afternoon but the results won't come to the doctors surgery for 2 days.
New Year
Well, this year is nearly over and I am very happy about that. I sure do hope 2012 is going to be an improvement. The only good thing to come out of 2011 is the new group of friends I have made and I thank each and every one of you. Without you I don't think I could have made it through the year. Some of you I have never met but you still have the power to lift me when I am feeling down.
Thank you all and I wish all of you a wonderful, healthy and properous 2012. hip, hip, hic...I've started already :0)
happy
I had a very long visit to the hospital clinic yesterday but all is well. I have a 2cm cyst on the left breast which the doctor could feel and she is sure it is just a blocked ductnbut she will keep an eyse on it. Everything else is OK except for my muscle tone. She suggests aqua aerobic! I'm a non-swimmer so I will have to think of something else. My knees and spine have been giving me quite a bit of pain lately but the doc assured me it was just the Arimidex and I have to get used to it......not as blunt as that but that was what she meant.
