Journal Entry for November 18, 2007 Mood

Sorry I haven't wrote lately.

I went and had a SI joint injection on the 26th of Oct. and it took a week or 2 but I feel real good right now. It has took a lot of my hip pain away. Now the question is how long will it last? I hope it will work for atleast a few months or so.

Will, the doc at Mayo Clinic still doesn't think I should worry about anything and Still no dx!! I'm so frustrated, I'm in pain on a daily basis and I'm only 37. This just makes me feel like not going to the doc anymore. I have had horrible IBS, I have had to have a LP on my heart do to a problem with my eletrical current in my heart and bone pain in my hips, back, leg and ankle!! All within the last 4 years with no sign of getting better. And I forgot the passing blood on a regular basis! I'm done with the docs!

    Hi bb1,
    Please don't give up, you just have to continue looking for a good doctor that will diagnose you and treat you. They are out there but sometimes it takes patience and persistent. You're in my prayers.
    Hugs,
    Monica

I had a CT scan on my hips and pelvis and it shows some changes in my hips. It seems the dr and the radiol. do not totally agree with one another. Sucks for me! It just means any diagnosis will take even longer. They have went to injury from weight training to Fybro to Degen. Jiont disease and even though I am classic for Anklosing Spondilitis he just refuses to go that route! Frustrated!!!

    I know how you feel thats the problem when you have more than one disease It took a year to get a Dx of MM Have they check for Lupus? I have Lupus ,Sjogren thyroid diseses theses are Autoimmunes Diseases including Anklosing Sponditis. What types of Dr are you seeing? for Autoimmunes Diseases you see a Rheumatologist they specialize in theses diseases and for Mutiple Myeloma a Hematologist-Oncologist that specialise in cancer and blood diseases You have to see a Hematologist the only way to confirm if you have MM is by doing A Bone Marrow Biobsy and other blood test well good luck
