Hope your starting to feel a little better now your meds have got into your system. I would let whoever let you down know how important your tablets arrive on time in future! Xx
 
Hi Natalie,
How are you doing? My consult went well. I have to lose 30 pounds to have the surgery. I should, so I'm ok with it.
I'm praying for you and can't wait to hear that you are finally feeling well.
 
I still feel terrible Dawn but fingers crossed tomorrow is a new day xx

Nyland so glad to hear the consult went well :) I'm sure in the near future. things will improve for me xx
 
Natalie, I wish I could offer an opinion about your symptoms but to be honest, your situation is so complex I wouldn't know where to begin! I tend towards it being a withdrawal, however.

As for the Oxford score, it's a means of getting a sense of the patient's experience with their problems vis a vis your knee (obviously). Often times, they thrust it under a patient's nose in clinic and expect them to complete it on the spot! Much better that you have time to consider the answers and fill it in at your leisure. But it's important that you remember to judge each answer on the whole of your experience over the last 2-3 weeks at least. It's awfully easy to just think of what your knee is like know. And do be totally honest, no marking things down! :wink1:
 
Thanks Jo xxx

I sat and filled in the score the whole time thinking I feel like such a wimp being in all this pain not being able to wash without sitting on a chair unable to make everyone dinner without help!There was a few where I should put the worst thing and nearly marked it up!!
 
Morning all I'm totally exhausted this morning still feel very odd and this headache just won't shift I didn't sleep last night at all but managed to get some this morning hope you're all well xx
 
Good for you, Natalie....sleep whenever and wherever you can. I hope you start feeling better soon once the meds get back in your system.

Shame on those folks who made you tough it out while they putzed around filling your prescription!!! It's obvious none of them has experienced pain!
 
Thanks Jamie x

I rang the hospital today and they said the bloods were slightly abnormal so they are putting me on antibiotics until the op x
 
That sounds like a good plan.
 
Hi Natalie, hope your feeling better in yourself now. I have been checking in to. Bonesmart all day for any updates as I was really worried about you. Not too long til you go back to wrightington, about 2 ish weeks? Then hopefully you will have more answers. If your bloods are showing an infection, could this be from the knee? Let's hope not. I will keep you in my prayers. Keep strong, love Dawn Xx
 
Hey Dawn xx They aren't sure if its from the knee just yet.So they are being cautious by giving me antibiotics.
I think a piece of my SC or several pieces have lodged into the top of my knee overnight if I lay in a flat position on my back with a pillow underneath and it bent slightly to the left it is just the normal pain but if I move it at all or put weight in its a sharp shooting pain!I am hoping if it's a piece of SC it will move out as quickly as it moved in!!

Hope you're all well xxx
 
Good morning Natalie! What's SC? Maybe you could try massage on it. I get Hubby to do that for me sometimes and although the pain doesn't go away it sure feels nice and it relaxes me especially when I get a headache stressing over it! It was unbearable last night so I was up until 2ish catching up with the forum. Got a busy day ahead, all the family are descending on me to watch the semi final. Half support Liverpool the other half everton. I will be leaving all the tea and coffee ready for them to help themselves! Xx
 
It's the disease I've got Dawn that's caused all my problems it's called synovial Chondromatosis.
I can't bear for my knee to be touched it hurts too much unfortunately :(
Please please take it easy this afternoon Dawn let everyone take care of you xxx
 
Hey how are you all?Hope you've all had a lovely weekend xx

I have spent most of it moving from bedroom to living room trying to get comfortable I have had ice on and off as well as heat pads and I have been keeping in top of all pain meds but still not feeling any better ah well not long till the 30th!
 
Hey Natalie, just noticed you were on line so thought I would pop by and tell you I have been thinking about you. Sorry you are still in the waiting mode. Just take it easy - no need for any major activity. How are those pain meds working for you? Better I hope?
 
Hi Natalie, not long now. You sound like me, just can't get comfy and pain free. I feel really resentful today. I should be fine by now and getting my life back on track :c darn knee!
