Thank you Patty. Yes, I agree that it probably is a blessing. I honestly didn't think there was anything wrong after having two sets of x-rays. I just couldn't figure out the swelling and redness. So I was completely shocked to be diagnosed with something I had never heard of. And then when I started looking at it online I just started getting sick.

Fortunately, this is suppose to be a very painful thing. I am in no pain, so I am very blessed.

Thanks for the hug. I could sure use a few right now.

Have you had a bone density scan? Bone loss is very common with RNY. I think we are supposed to get a scan every 2 years.

Yes, I had one last year and it came out normal. I thought about that too. Maybe I need them more often?

Just thought I would let you know that I made it through my first spinal injection today. I was concious, but sedated, and did not fill a thing. I think I felt a little bit of the local given, but they gave me more sedation when I said what was that. Then I guess I got the injection because a few minutes later I was getting into a wheel chair and on my way to recovery.

The doctor is very impressed with the reduction of swelling. She thinks I am doing well on the meds. She hopes that I will only need 1 or 2 more injections!

Thanks for all of your prayers and support!
