my specialist said this to me the last time we spoke over the phone, “What you’re going through.. what you have to deal with & the amount of pain you experience... on top of your other symptoms, on a DAILY basis... you aren’t even living your life, you’re just surviving”... And it’s true.
I cannot do anything that involves my core w/out increasing the pain:
Reaching,
lifting
twisting
Turning
changing positions
even sitting up after lying down...
almost everything you do, you use your core.
I needa cane to walk & it’s honestly starting to not be enough & Ima need to find a cheap, used walker- maybe a wheelchair. and YES, it really is THAT bad.
My pelvis hurts SO badly, my hips and thighs kill me so bad that walking or even just standing for more than 30-60 seconds is too much & I have collapsed quite a bit from the pain- especially from what l call, “lightning pains” which are reallly sharp, excruciating pains that come out of nowhere and have made me collapse on several occasions.
I need this surgery....
