Well friends I'm back to my untreatable arthritis pain. As if preparing for another knee replacement is not enough, I have to live with arthritis pain every where but in the new right knee.
I've been taken off my arthritis medication 10 days prior to surgery and will be off of it for 6-8 weeks post surgery because of the coumadin I'll be taking.
This will be my 7th knee surgery, believe me when I tell you I'm going to wait as long as humanily possible for my spine and other joints.
Last week I spoke with my primary care doctor, my ortho.dr and my rheum.dr., there is nothing available for me other than pain meds.
On the bright side my new right knee is doing great! However it's just the rest of my body that's falling apart(joint by joint).
I know I have thanked those of you who were here for me during my last surgery, your support and prayers were greatly appreciated. I kept posting here until I thought I was the only person on this entire site, glad I came back to check in. You know the old saying "misery loves company". I offer all of you my full support and understanding as well.
Peace and Love,
Grace
