Guest guest Posted May 7, 2001 Report Share Posted May 7, 2001 Hi gang, Something has been bugging me and I wonder if other have to deal with this too. When I have a day like Saturday when I have an activity (We drove an hour to Providence then went to the circus) I enjoy myself but then the next three or four days I am totally useless because I am tired and hurting. We are in the process of planning our next vacation and am wondering what to do. As it is I feel bad for my husband because there are times I can't even go to the movies because the chairs make my back hurt so much. I am also noticing that my knee pain isn't improving and becaus ehte pain is so bad simple exercies such a leg raises or quad sets are un-doable (word?) so my muscles are really atrophying. It's really annoying because before I had the knee joint infection in January I was doing an hour on the treadmill. I can't do 8 minutes now. How pathetic! I just don't know how I can turn this around. I am going to talk to my pain doc about restoring my breakthrough pain meds and the ortho said if the synvisc injections didn't help he would have to scope my knee to find out what is going on. Thanks for listening I needed to get this out. Sue K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
