Okay, this is starting to get old. Yeah, of course the foot pain is, but I'm talking about these nerve block procedures that I have hoped would temporarily deaden the offending nerves and give me some relief. Not happening.
Today's attempt at the S1 level went pretty smoothly as far as procedures go. I did feel some very slight changes in the way my foot felt. My pain level dropped a number or two and I was walking slightly better. However, the bulk of the pain never left the foot or lower leg and I was soon back to pretty much the same limp I have been saddled with for weeks now.
I will continue to log my pain level over the next 3 days. I return to the back doc on 9/4, hoping that he will have a new plan of attack. What I don't want to hear is that I'm just stuck with this.
So, please continue to pray for me to get some relief, but mostly pray for my spirits to remain high and that despair not set in. There still must be some things that God wants me to learn through all this. Thanks for remembering me today!
Prayers up!
Charley,
ReplyDeleteI am sorry to hear the results of the test today. I am happy to know your faith and hope are in God. Continue to trust in God and do not ride the roller coaster of doctors reports. Wait upon the Great Physician because He loves you and He is trustworthy.
Janet and I will continue to lift you in our prayers.
In His Love!
