MDJunction to me

Hazeldee"MDJunction means that I no longer have to feel like I am the only person in
the world with pericarditis. It means that I can talk to others who know
how stressful and how painful having pericarditis can be. It means that I
connect with others to discuss treatments that have or haven't worked for us, so that we have a leg to stand on. I think that having my friends at
MDJunction has allowed me to better mentally and emotionally process my
diagnosis and what it means to me. I feel so lucky to have this community
available to me. I use MDJunction as a way to use my experience to help
others. Reaching out to help others is the only solace I have found since
being diagnosed with pericarditis.

Well, how long will it be now? What talking with a phys (physiatrist) have to do with get it done? I read where you may/will see rehabilitation physicians, receive physical therapy. Those are not crazy doctor. If they are then hell I'm crazy because I've had to go to them often. Tell you what come on down and we will all get together. Half will hold you down the other half will figure out how to cut and insert this TENS unit. Will just have to leave a hole so that we can change the battery. Just big enough for a 9volt. Sorry you got yourself together to go through this now you have to start over again.

Brandi,

Sorry that you had another let down. I do hope it won't be long for the next appt so they can do the trial run. I know you want this to work, and we are all behind you. We will continue praying...just gives us longer to pray. Let us know what is going on. HUGS

Please do not take anything I say as medical advice. I am not a doctor.
