I survived steroidal shots to my right side bursa and hip. Except for the LARGE bruise on the top of my right hand where the IV went. Wednesday and Thursday were tough, these shots were painful. More so because that is the side I lie on to read and watch TV. Such difficult adjustments.
I am still using program 1 on my St. Jude Neurostimulator, because it works and it helps the pain so much! But I am going to try the other programs next week, just to see what they do. Then I can productively suggest changes to the program.
Sunday is my birthday, I will be 59! Which means on Monday I can say, "I am going to be 60!" This is an interesting feeling, since my 50's have not been my favorite decade. The best part of it, grandchildren. There were 3 born during my 50's, adding to the 1 beautiful blonde boy we already had. I mention blonde, because that is so unusual for my family. So I guess I am ready to go wisely into my 60's, having a year to prepare.
One of the reasons for being optimistic is how much the Neurostimulator has helped, and the quality of Dr.'s I have.
