Relief????
Dec 07, 2009
I think finally I see a light at the end of this long painful tunnel I've been stuck in for the last 14 months.Yesterday, after being flown out of town due to my side pain becoming unbearable, a surgeon thinks he has the answer, and I'm of the opinion that he may be right.
A form of neuropathy. "Pinched" nerves in the abdominal area, due to scar tissue
The fix is a matter of injecting cortisone into the nerves and deadening the area... VOILA!!!! no more pain
I sure hope this is the answer.
My first injection is in the morning. I'm excited, but also a little wary. I'm excited that this is the answer and I'll actually have no more pain for a time. I'm unsure how long the shot will last, or how often I'll have to have it done. I'm a little wary because what if this isn't the actual problem. I get the shot, and still have the pain? Back to square one. I hate the fact that every test seems to say all is normal, other than a slight imperfection... Gas bubble showing on X-Ray, swelling showing in the CT scan. Electrolytes a little off.
Please please please let this be the answer.
