Pain Free


For the first time in a long long time I have to say my wrist is pain free. Whoopy. Wearing this cast prevents the movement that really caused me pain. And I like it. I could get used to this, LOL. I may never let them take this case off.

Last night at work was a challenge. I had to get some X large gloves up to fit over the cast. 2 out of every 5 I put on I ended up ripping. Of course I had isolation patients so I had to wear gloves most of the time and cover the rest of the cast with a plastic bag. What a bother. But......pain free, such a nice feeling. I love it!

One more night of work. I have been flushed and having hot flashes all night and think it was from the steroid shot, I seem to remember that from the last time I had a big shot. And maybe the pain is better because of the shot. Not sure but don't care.

I want to go out and get some photos this week for the challenge but haven't tried to use my camera with the cast on. And I can't get my gloves on which is a bummer as it is cold as usual. I wonder how long it will take to melt the 40 + inches of snow we have on the ground? August?

The more I read about this disease he thinks I might have the less I like it. I am praying it is wrong and it turns out to be something else. This is after all usually a man's disease. I don't share my PMS, they should keep their bone death disease. Well actually thinking about it...... I guess I did use to share my PMS with Rick. Into every marriage some spice must fall, right.

Well time to wash my hair. One handed. I am getting used to just having one hand to use. Oh, one other thing. My shoulder feels pretty darn good.

I am glad that your wrist and shoulder both are feeling better. It's about time. Seems as if all that exercise they had you doing may have done more harm that good. I hope all that snow gets gone soon. Helen
