Thank you Dale
This morning I've been to see the Pain Specialist & he really is lovely & very understanding, although I did tell him he was cruel with his exam & what followed lol!!
It was typical that this morning things were a lot more settled though by no means perfect. I explained to him all of my new symptoms & concerns & he feels I had a particularly bad flare last week (not sure I've posted about that but it was horrible & had me screaming like a banshee!). Anyway, after chatting through different options I agreed on a couple of injections which consisted of local anaesthetic & steroids. The sites injected were the; Trochanteric Bursa & the Paraspinous Muscle Infiltrations, both on the right side. I can tell you,
they hurt!! The Dr & the nurse assisting were lovely
The nurse said she'd not seen such a muscle spasm or heard such a pop from the needle coming out
I now have to rest up & return on 26/07 for a review. We also chatted about the various nerve meds available & depending on the outcome of the injections will discuss it some more next month.
Thanks again for your replies
