Guest guest Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 Tawny, I am so happy for you, it is about time you had some relief from leg pain. Just wanted to mention that when I was having neck problems as you described, I went for approx 6 visits to a massage therapist and my neck now has very good range of motion. Hugs June Hey everyone,......I went to my rheumy appointment yesterday, and was so excited to go, I was there an hour before my app time. I had a cortisone shot in the leg, by the knee. It will take a couple of days to feel better, It's already feeling a little better. It will also help other parts of the body. My neck has been really bothering me too, it's also doing much better today. Yesterday, it was so bad, that I had to have help getting up after laying on the table. My neck would not go at all, that's scary. I'm still on the humira, mtx, and loratab. They did up my dose on the loratab to 7.5, it was like 5. Also, put me on flexeril, and back on lodine at 3 times a day. They took x-rays, lab work, and the works. I'm hoping this shot will really help my leg, and get me moving again. I'm ready to start those robotic exercises, I have been so wanting to do. I hope that everyone starts having some better days. I'm really looking forward for better weather, so it's looking brighter every day,.....Tawny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 25, 2005 Report Share Posted January 25, 2005 June,....yes it is time to have some relief:) The rheumy told me if I'm not better by next visit, I need to get into physical therapy. That sounds like a good move with the massage therapist, and relaxing. That is awesome in 6 visits! Thanks for sharing, will check it out, hugs Tawny > Tawny, I am so happy for you, it is about time you had some relief from leg pain.
