Pain Management

I had a pain management appointment yesterday afternoon with the Millennium Pain Center. They are actually based out of Bloomington, but they have an office in Pontiac at the hospital. They informed me that I don't have scoliosis! and that I just have arthritis in my back, so they are going to give two steroid injections on April 7th. They have to put me under, which I'm not to thrilled about, but she said it is just a twilight sleep. Rod said that's what he had done when he had his carpal tunnel surgery. I remember he was a little funny on our way home! Anyway, they said I'm still suppose to go to physical therapy as scheduled and continue taking my prescriptions. They also gave me a fancy belt to wear as often as possible. It is kinda cool and helps quite a bit! It's not very stylish, but I can hide it under my shirt.

Last night Paige and I went to Grandma Peg's & Grandpa Stubby's to pick up our plate of monster cookies, and it just so happened that we stayed for dinner. Paige was playing with an old wooden school bus that holds blocks and she fell down and gashed her lip open on it. She cried for a bit, but stopped as soon as Grandma gave her a cold wet wash cloth. That seemed to make it all better! She's defiantly a little dare devil. Her newest stunt is that she likes to climb on to the couch, sit on the edge of the cushion, and fall backwards onto the floor. She makes me so nervous! I've learned to throw pillows on the floor just in case I don't get to her in time!
