Dear Raven,
Thank you! I am just in a total mess right now. I have the adhesions,
the knee pain, can't sleep at night, my depression is flaired up with
all this & the insurance co. I have trembling in mainly my left hand &
have an appointment with a neurologist soon, & now I have a hernia! I am
making an appointment with my DR today to get it checked out. I talked
with her over the weekend & she thinks we should have something done for
it. It is painful & I walk around with a pillow. I have a cough from
my alergies & when I cough, it hurts & sometimes it feels like it is
tearing more! & my bladder is leaky with all the coughing! Some days, it
just doesn't pay to get up! LOL
love
robin
