I'm cranky

The intensity of the pain is just ridiculous. It's impossible to move without feeling like my legs are being ripped off. I sat here and cried while Pauley was in the kitchen. I don't want her to worry so I'm doing my damnest to hide it. She's burnt out and I know she doesn't have any spoons to help me. I'm trying to do my best to take care of myself.
But it's effecting my mood. I'm really not ok.
I just want to sit swaddled in my blankie with my cow and I want smile potatoes and bacon and scrambled eggs. And a donut.

Rough day

Yesterday my new pain management doctor wanted to see my range of motion in my hips. She had me lay down and she bent my right leg. OMG the pain spiked to 9. She apologized for hurting me but I said she needs to see how bad it gets.
This morning I woke up in serious pain. My lumbar feels like I got kicked. My right hip really hurts. But the X-rays showed us why my right side hurts so much. The ball socket is bone on bone. It's new since September of 2022.
Thankfully I have Pauley. She gave me a Norco and she put some CBD cream on my back. Right now pain is at 6.
My fasting BG was about 152. I need to eat something but I don't want to get off my bed. I'm craving a grilled cheese sandwich with some sweet potato red pepper soup.

Today

We just got done with today's appointment with the pain management clinic. I'm getting cortisone injections on July 11th. The doctor was very nice and helpful. Everyone here has been very accepting and called me Nox.
My doctor wanted to check my range of motion. I laid on my back and she bent my right knee up and OMG the pain was immediate, spiked to 9. Then she extended my leg up straight and I started crying cuz the pain was just so intense. She apologized but I said it's fine cuz she needs to see how bad it is. I was smart and only took one tramadol before we left.
We did x-rays of my hips and lumbar. We found out my right hip socket has narrowed so much that now it's bone on bone. I'm gonna have an MRI of my lumbar and hips next month.
It stormed really bad after my appointment so we stayed in the waiting room. Pauley had to do some remote work cuz her client lost power from the storm. She actually went in to the office instead of coming home with me. She got home by about 920pm.

Sigh.. just another high pain day

I had a really bad migraine when I woke up but I took my meds and 3 hours ago it went away. My right hip still hurts but not as bad as this morning. My tummy hurts so bad.
I ate 2 buttered cheesy English muffins for lunch and then at 430pm I had some cheesy broccoli.
I need to wake up Pauley for some CBD cream on my back.
§ wanders to wake her up...she mumbled and I think went back to sleep §

Omfg my poor head

I woke up with a really bad migraine and my right hip is trashed. Pauley is asleep so I took what's in my meds box on my bed. 2 tramadol and an eletriptan. I need her to put some CBD cream on my neck. Lately my meds haven't been helping my hips. I feel miserable.

My everything hurts except for the back of my head

The back of my head is still completely numb. I wonder how long it will last. My eyes are very sore from the vision problems I have. My back is very ouchy. My hips are stiff and sore. Pauley just gave me a Norco.

I'm starting to think maybe Saturday isn't Free comic book day. None of my local shops have posted about it. I'm very disappointed. I was excited to introduce my darling stupidhead Pauley to the shop. It's lots of fun.

I just remembered steroids increase BG temporarily. Usually for about a day at most. That explains why my BG went to insane levels.

Owchie

Pauley made more almond milk last night so I asked our downstairs neighbor if she wanted some. She got excited and said yes. So I just brought her some a few minutes ago. She loved it! I taught her how to make it herself. She has a blender so all she needs is almonds and cheesecloth. We have more cheesecloth than we need so I'm gonna give her some. We chatted about our chronic pain issues. She's gonna go for a walk this morning before it's supposed to rain. I told her about my hips and back issues and she was shocked. Mostly cuz I'm so young. Or because I look young lol.

God damned mother fluffing stupid pain

My lumbar is awful today. My sciatica is flaring up really bad. My thighs feel like I got kicked. I've taken a Norco and a tramadol but it didn't even take the edge off the pain. Thank goodness today isn't Saturday.

I just made a really weird cup of mud wtr. I was sipping it and I said gosh that's weird tasting coffee and then ding I remember it's not coffee. I did add some vanilla caramel latte powder but it was just for creaminess cuz I'm out of milk.

Pauley insists we have to make our own oat milk but I drink about 5 cups each day and she's been making 3 cups every other day. I told her this wouldn't work.

I'm smack dab in the middle of a nasty hot flash. I'm sweating a ton. This sucks.

I don't even know

I have been sleeping for the last 6 hours at least. Pauley woke me up twice and I got so confused. I've been so tired and I decided to catch up on my sleep since I don't have any appointments today.

I'm hoping to feel up to going to the art studio open house. It's from 1pm to 7pm. They're serving free wine and snacks. There's going to be a pizza food truck. I think it sounds really cool. I want to check out the sculpting studio. I want to do some sculpting.

My left hip really hurts. It's been bad since earlier yesterday. I'm very overdue for cortisone injections but I gotta find a hip specialist now for the injection and I'm having trouble finding one. Even my insurance website sucks for finding doctors . I need to find a pain clinic.

I don't think we're going to go to the open house... It's in 4 hours and Pauley hasn't slept yet.

Friggin eh

I have horrible tummy pain. It's mostly gas pain. My tummy sure likes to toot its own horn.

My back is trashed. I can't get comfortable on the couch. I keep shifting but everything hurts.

My hips keep popping. Especially my right hip.

My eyes just hurt. I told pauley and she said "would it get better if you wore your glasses?" I had to explain it's not a vision issue. It's misalignment of my eyes. The only way to fix it is surgery. She doesn't understand. I showed her how my eyes just shift back and forth.

I feel like nobody is taking it seriously when I say I'm scared. I've gone through so much big scary stuff and I survived. It's just assumed I'm superman and I'm strong enough to get through this eye problem. But I'm terrified. I'm more scared than I was when I had my back surgery.

I need a friend who kidnaps me for coffee and going to pet stores to play with the fuzzy babies. That would really help me feel better.
