On Wednesday I went to Las Cruces to see two diffrent docs one for my Basal Cell and the other was my Pain management doctor. The P.M. got back my results of my blood tests and this is what he found. I do not have Diabeties, My Thyroid is good, My Platelets are good, heres the kicker he did a test on my hormones and as some of you might or might not know we have testosterone The level for a woman is suppose to be 2.5 to 4.6 well mine wasnt that at all, Mine was .08 which is realy bad. I just couldnt figure out why I was taking so many pain pills and its because the receptors in my spine and brain are gone, I have none so when I take my meds they dont have anything to stick to to tell my body the pain meds are working, so what it boils down to is this There is no message going to my body about stopping the pain, so it never stops, He gave me a script for a gel to use for now but am waitting to see if my insurance will pay for it, again its all about the insurance. Im also going to P.T. and I have to tell you I just cant take the pain anymore. the doc gave me Morphine to take but its not working either, so until this is fixed Im going to stay in pain. I dont know if my mind can stand this at all. You might ask your doctor to run this blood test for the hormones on you and see where your level is, this might be why your meds arent working either. he also said my Fibro fog is going to be out of this world well yes it is. desertmom !!! |
