I'm still groggy from general anesthesia

[Haole Girl]

Ask me anything.

I may or may not reply (depending on whether or not I fall asleep).

:-)

1. why were you under anesthesia?

nothing serious, I hope.

[Haole Girl]

3. No, nothing serious, thanks

Had the last, of 3, steroid injections in my neck.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

5. I hope it gives you relief.

in the neck ,,,ouch x(

Feel better soon :hug:

[Haole Girl]

6. Thanks... the first shot did..

didn't notice any difference with the 2nd shot. The pain doctor (who gives the shots) is amazing, though. He has another plan if this last one doesn't work... something about changing the pathway of a nerve. He said I could go to his office and look at pictures. haha. I must have had that blank look I get when I don't understand something! LOL

7. Wow

changing the pathway of a nerve sounds interesting.

Did he mean physically moving the nerve and re-routing it, or something else?

I have a nerve in my left arm that was moved to make my elbow replacement surgery easier, no problems at all with it, but the consequences of a screwup are huge.

9. He explained it as taking heat, with a needle as narrow as the tip of a pen...

it does sound interesting. It sounds hopeful to me, too. The doc said it could work as long as a year. Hey- when you're talking about C5-C6 surgery is a last resort.

12. I wish you the best

I hope that whatever happens, you get the relief you need and want.

2. You need to get to bed and sleep it off.

Hope you feel better soon.:hug:

[Haole Girl]

4. Only problem with me sleeping during the day, though,

is how much it messes up my sleep for at least a week. But thanks. :hug:

[texanwitch]

8. Maybe you can just rest you neck.

Just keep your eyes open.

I know what you mean about sleeping during the day, I have the same problem.

[Haole Girl]

10. Yeah..

I better get off the computer now... really. Nice to see you around, texanwitch! :hi:

[texanwitch]

11. Check back in later.

Let us know you are OK.

13. I figured you may or may not finish sentences
