OH MY GOD,
Lady you have the same issues has me. I just filed for Disability. my
right shoulder is now frozen since October 2006.
When i was reading your story, i was going to ask if you have Diabetes and
surely enough as I read on there you said it. Type 2.
The best thing to do is keep moving, get off the pain meds and just think
this way. ( I am going to always have this pain, but I will keep walking ,
I will change my diet no more sugar unless I can't help it, take my Diabetic
meds, drink aloe juice, take cod liver oil pills and vitamin E pills, and
drink lots and lots of water every day after each meal. Only take pain meds
if I have to get a good night sleep and cant. THe pain will not go away but
these tips will help you live with it. RASPBERRY TEA WITH LIME FIRST THING
EVERY MORNING. HELPS WITH THE HOTFLASH. I don't stay in bed unless i have
to, it makes the pain worse.)
The diabetes is what is stopping the healing process in your body from the
surgeries. I have had 3 surgeries. THe hysterectomy, adhesions all the way
up to my intestines, wrap around my back , I try telling the doctor and my
husband, but has much as i love my husband to hell with him if he does not
get it, he looks at me like. oh I don't know.
I only think of myself now, and what makes me happy,no one else and now i
have a better relationship with my husband, only because i don't care what
he thinks, its all about me and my pain, I do what i can do, but i no
longer expect any sympathy from my family, they all don't understand. I
will never go back to work unless I feel 100% well , I will fight for my
disability claim until i get it. I worked for 25 years and put money in the
system.
Please email me at valrietwilliams@aol.com so i can help you some more. I
have done so much research on this.
Take Care
