    • About Me

      Have had Cronic Pain for 9 years.. I am So board now that at times I just feel like saying the hell with it and going out and looking for a part time job even tho I know I wouldn't last a day.. I can't do my crafts anymore, play the piano, take care of my granddaughter or even garden. I end up laying in bed 85% of the day which I call the "The Dungen" because to me its just so depressing to think that at my young age of 51, all's I am doing is watching TV all day... I do have some hope for the future which is an MRI on the 11th of August, 2008... If there is anything wrong down in the colon area that can be fixed, after I get the MRI and it is read, maybe there is hope after all.. PLEASE keep your fingers crossed for me and say a prayer that day... **I need to get back to work not only for my MENTAL HEALTH but also to help pay for the bills that keep piling up here on the kitchen table** To update you all - I got a phone call from UC Davis 10 minutes before we were going to leave to get the MRI. They proceeded to tell me that I could NOT get the MRI that I was leaving for because of the VNS Machine... After getting in an argument with them they said they would look into it for me and call me right back... After 10 minutes past they called back and proceeded to tell me that they still would NOT let me get an MRI but they wanted me to come in for something called a "HIGH RESOLUTION CAT SCAN". My husband and I left right away, got the test done and again, here I lay in bed waiting for the doctor to call me with the results... I feel that the rest of my life is going to be in bed just waiting for everyone else to get back to me... Has anyone else gotten this test and had good luck with it??? IF so, please let me know... I am just really down about not being able to get the MRI like I was promised!! :(

      I had to do the same thing with my grandmother.. At first she was very bitter and angry but as time passed she became involed with Baking Pies there, Made alot of frieds and got back into knitting.. She also got back into playing her favorite games such as scrabble, bridge and chess.. Once there settled in they do realize that it is a fun place to be.
