I just received a diagnosis after a MRI was done on my right hip and I am trying to get into the VA pain clinic. I am waiting on a conformation of a cancellation to get in earlier than dec 6th which is my regular appointment.
I am up again all night tonight with the pain and my sleeping schedule is all messed up Im on disability from a brain tumor surgey i had in june
2003. I just went to the pain clinic last week and it has been one week after the Injection to my hip and I am still in chornic Pain all day I take the Pain Meds at night so I can get out and do things during the day, Errands and I dont have anyone here family or friends to help me ewxcept my case manager at the VA to talk to about the Pain I am going through. I hope the next Back Injection will be helpful in reducing the pain, I wi;; have to find somebody to drive me to the Pain Clinic next month they said I could not drive myself home after the injection. Of they wont perform the procedure I hope I can get my roomate to help drive me but she has been over at her boyfriends for over a week now so I lost the help I had here. I asked someone today about coming to clean my house at least once a week so I can geta break from the heavy cleaning and things which I have trouble with I am Also Bi-Polar and take meds for that too.
