MDJunction to me

Macv"For me, MDjunction has been a place where I can share my experiences
living with the very rare bone disease called Ollier's ( Enchondromatosis ) with the parents of children recently diagnosed. I can help them not to run
into the pitfalls my parents did when I was young, give them a bit of a view
from their child's perspective and simply be there to offer support and
hope to people who are scared and just had their lives upended. I also belong to a chronic pain group and it's been a Godsend to be able to actually
talk with others who understand what I'm dealing with. Besides them helping me through my tough times, I can be there to help them as well. Here too, I can use my years of experience to help others avoid pitfalls and it makes me feel good, gives my life more purpose. MDjunction brings people
together when their suffering, at their darkest and feeling alone in this world and allows some light to be brought back into their lives. HOPE, that's what
MDjunction means to me!

The sciatica diary from hell !

this is my daily struggle with sciatica pain and the exhaustion it causes


fridays physio and saturday morning .....

Jun 16 2012

Well friday i had my physio , god it smarted a tad , was then given some trigger point acupuncture .... was weird and gave me pins and needles for quite a while but he said thats good as it was in the correct place . didnt feel much difference when i came out the physio actually felt a bit worse for wear for all the mucking around they did . 

 didnt sleep that well friday night and am very tired today , im fed up totally and going to sleep on the couch and not going to my own bed .. its really getting me down now , tonight my back is really really painful for some reason , its going into spasm constant and its really bad , hasnt been this bad for ages , am wondering if it has anything to do with the physio i had earlier on today but it kept me awake most of the night . 

 

 

saturday morning is here , i must say the really sharp sharp pain ive had in my cheek and leg for god knows how long seems to be duller today , now i dont know if its just wishful thinking and knowing i had the acupuncture yesterday thats fooling me into thinking it or wether it has actually done something , oh i am really hoping that it has done something cos i dont really no how much more i can cope with .

Its now 11pm on saturday night and my husbands about to goto bed without me and i feel like crying yet again through frustration and sheer fed upness !! if thats even a word . im seriously getting really low over this all and im not coping that well mentally and the moment and its scaring me cos all i wanna do is cry all the time because of the pain and because i just dont wanna be like this anymore .... lets see what tonights like .. no doubt it will be crap like all the rest ... suppose its time to say goodnight to the hubby and try and settle on the couch for night . ... will keep the diary posted on the night and days to come ! thanks for reading .
