Close Bereavement
Type: Loss of a Partner/SpouseMy husband died March 28, 07 we were together for 34 years. I am 52 he was on dialysis for 6 years plus heart problems. I had major surgery year ago and off work and taking care of him was very stressful especially in and out of hospitals and then ended up in nursing home where he died. Our daughter has not spoke to us for 3 years and needless to say haven't seen our granddaughter who will be 5 and she was the love of our life. I couldn't even get her to come see her dying dad
Treatments
- Crying Too Soon to Tell
- I cry alot especially at night when I am all alone in the house. I hate my daughter for not being here for me when I needed her most and why this had to happen to us
- Prayer Somewhat Helpful
- I got back into church last year and it helps me going to mass every week and the priest is wonderful it is just time for me. I pray it will get better and he's at peace
- Xanax Working / Worked
- The doctor gave these right after his death to get me through funeral and they help me sleep but, I don't want to depend on them
Close Widows & Widowers
I lost my husband March 28, 07 and were together 34 years. He was on dialysis 6 years and major heart and vein disease. I took care of him everyday since I had major surgery last year and not working as he was not able to drive, hard to walk,and mental status not good and I feel so alone now it is really hard on me. I don't let on to people how I really am as I have always been the strong one and now I am not so strong.
Treatments
- Xanax Working / Worked
- The doctor gave me this right after death to get through the funeral and all it really helped me sleep but, I don't want to depend on it
Open Back Pain
I am female 52. I hurt myself back in 1994 and had back surgery in 94 for herniated disk at L5S1 and then in 96 same thing same level. Same level again year ago only this time hardware went in. I also have 2 disk above not good and have plate at C6C7 in neck. I am seeing pain doctor now but, I get so upset that I can't do what I want to do or takes me forever to do something like clean the house if I can get 1 room done I am down for the next 2 days. I just lost my husband so now I am all alone
Treatments
- Epidural Injection Somewhat Helpful
- just had another round worked at first but, wore off quick so not sure what next step is
- Hydrocodone Working / Worked
- I take on regular basis to help with some of pain but, I hate taking pills not knowing the long term effect of them
- Physical Therapy Somewhat Helpful
- I did this for 3 months last fall and then 2 months this year. It was little helpful but, seem like did same thing all the time and just couldn't get out of that pain
