Guest guest Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 My husband thought I would be fixed when I had the Vertebroplasty. But it did nothing for the Rupture Disc and as I said before I think it stabilized my Fracture. my spine is out of line. So he thought I was putting on for awhile there. But when he saw I turned away from things he knew I loved to do. he began to believe me. Jena ~:~Jena~:~ My Home Page My E-mail Re: I am new here Lucy, Hang in there. All of us go through overwhelming feelings when newly diagnosed. Do find a doctor that you can have a good relationship with. Sounds like your current doctor is still working on a diagnosis, and you must be scared and feeling very alone. Let your doctor know what you are feeling, including being depressed. Your doctor can help, but you have to go to him and let him know what is going on. Doctors cannot treat what they do not know about. Also, let him know that you want babies, having children is not out of the picture for you. You will not always feel physically the way you do now. We all learn how to work around our limitations, okay sometimes better than other times. About your husband. My dear BF said it. " Guys just want to fix things. You are broken and I want you fixed. " He is earnest at least. He misses the person I was who could walk miles, do almost anything I set out to do, and never get tired, but he stays with me anyway. Your husband wants you to be better and his solution is to make money to fix you. My guy brings me coffee in the morning. It's his way of giving me a reason to get up in the morning. It is going to take a while for your husband to figure out what you need. Not only is not the life you signed up for it isn't the life he signed up for either. Find parts of the you, you used to be and make sure you do some of that once in a while for him. Yeah, if I can bake cookies for the first time in over a year, there must be something you can do. I know this, because my wrists are killing me right now, scraping the side of the mixing bowl should not be this much work.
