Re: Paranoid or Not.
Well had the scan saw the Dr. Apparently I have a fracture in my 5th Vertabre. Dunno how it happened. Haven't fallen over. So now to get a Bone Density scan next week to check for Osteoporosis. At least I know why the pain. Lungs, heart all good. Which is what I was soo scared about. Xxxx21Views1like0CommentsParanoid or Not.
Hi Everyone, Just feel like a bit of a vent today. For the last couple of weeks have had sore shoulders. Thought I'd just over stretched. But pain killers weren't working. So off to the Dr I went. She suggested Physio which I had twice. Trouble is laying on my front for an hour did nothing for my Mastectomy site it feels like it's bruised now. Anyway long story short after 2 weeks it is just as bad so went back to the Dr this morning. She still feels it is Muscular but as it really hurts when I take a deep breath or cough she has decided to send me for a CT scan. Which to be honest is what I wanted. But now I am home and appointment made for Monday I am thinking that I am being Paranoid. Hope you are doing OK Jan xxxx764Views0likes16CommentsRe: Sleep
@iserbrown thank you for the post. This is so apt for me at the moment. I used to be a stomach sleeper until last year when I had my operation. Coming out of hospital I made myself sleep on my side for obvious reason it hurt to sleep on my front. Over the months I went back to stomach sleeping. I have pain and aches in my shoulders and back the last week. Finally plucked up courage to go to the DR this week and she recommended a Physio. Which I am off to this morning. I am convinced its the way I am sleeping. I am not sure I could sleep on my back tho. Hopefully Physio is all I need. Thanks again Jan xxxx13Views3likes0CommentsJust looking for Words of Advice.
Hi I was just wondering if anyone could help me learn to Sleep on my side. For about the last 6 weeks I wake up really tight in the chest and arm that I had the Mastectomy on. And I have convinced myself that it is because I sleep on my front. I have a U pillow and the lovely pillow I was given in hospital. ( That is now a security pillow) Don't go any where without it. When I had the operation my mind made me sleep on my side but not any more. Hope this doesn't sound to silly considering so many of you can't sleep. Thankfully I am now over that. Hope you are all doing well. Jan xxxxx123Views0likes5Comments
