Back again! - Spinal Cord Disorders Message Board

Hi Belle and all of you. I have been quiet lately for two reasons. One is that there is no real progress here and the other is that I just returned from a week long eastern Carribean cruise!

I see the neurosurgeon again tomorrow. We'll see what he has to offer. Elavil has made the head pains/pressure more bareable, but only because it does help me to sleep at night. My arm symptoms continue as does the pain between my shoulder blades.

While I am more able to function thanks to the decent sleep I now receive, the symptoms are always present. I want relief, not just medication that dulls my cognition and emotion.

SO...on to the doc yet again tomorrow and we'll see what happens from here.

Glad to see you are finally getting some good results, Belle. I hope I don't have to wait as long as you to get someone to really listen.

Well Nancy ..

It is lovely to see you on !!

I was really worried where you were , and how you were doing !!..??

I haven't got time to read your message right now but will when a free minute ok?

I am still having some struggles , in fact big ones , but as I have to live with them for years to come there is no point in even really dwelling on them , just the things I can TRY to do something about !!
Like you say , at least I have my N/Surgeon being very kind to me so that is wonderful.. I can't be more Thankful, even tho it's only every few months we see him .

Now YOU !!

I wil be checking in to see how you are on here again soon ..
gotta go to bed .- late ,
so Take Care Nancy , won't you ?!!
Love Belle NZ xxx
