    • About Me

      I just lost my job of 15 years, have an 11 year old son, and am having emotional problems related to chronic pain..I had some serious health problems after being rear ended by a truck, and I am now unable to excercise for well over a year, and had to have 18 injections for Pelvic and low back pain. I hope to find out how to better deal with depression, anxiety and loss of quality of life.

    • Prayer

      From Katty2 October 12

      I've been thinking about you, since I haven't heard from you in a long time. I'm hoping things are going better for you and your family. When you are up to it, let me know how you are doing.
      Take care, Kat

    • Funny Face

      From Katty2 September 30

      Hope this funny face will bring a smile to your face. Injections didn't hurt very much and I was just a little sore yesterday. Not sore today. The doctor said that on the third visit, which is scheduled for Nov. 18, we will evaluate my progress. If neither of us sees progress, then she wants me to get an updated MRI. Some of the leg symptoms that I have could be caused by spinal stenosis and she want to rule that out. My last MRI was 5 years ago and my back looked fine, but things change. I'm hoping that it is a ligament problem and not spinal stenosis. Hope your days are a little brighter this week. Take care.

    • Ray of Sunshine

      From Katty2 September 27

      I'm sending you some sunshine, hoping that sunny days are ahead as the meds and therapy help move those dark clouds hanging over you. Thanks for thinking of me, even when you are having a rough time. Take care.

    • Prayer

      From Katty2 September 26

      Hoping all is okay because I haven't heard from you about the results from the ultrasound on your pancreas and gallbladder. Sending you prayers

    • Sorry

      From Katty2 September 17

      I'm sorry to hear that you are still dealing with the stomach pain. What were the results of the colonoscopy and GI tests? When is the ultrasound scheduled? Do hope that they find the cause and treat it successfully. No fun having pelvic pain and stomach issues to deal with at the same time. My sinus problems are gone and I'm in wait mode for the prolotherapy on the 29th. I put the Myotherapist on hold, because it was starting to irritate my muscles. I'm watching how far I walk so as not to cause leg pain before prolo. I'm seeing my chiropractor who adjusts my L5, which eliminates back pain for a while and he also does the Active Release. My body needs to be in complete alignment for prolo, so saw the Atlas Orthogonal Chiro this week and will probably see him one more time before my treatment. Even though the prolotherapist is an osteopath and certainly could adjust me, I'm extremely sensitive and my chiropractors know what works for me and what sets me into more pain. How is your son and wife doing? Keep me posted.
