Paige, Cole and Savannah came to help us out yesterday. The house is clean again, recycling done, weeds sprayed, ants sprayed, our car vacuumed out...now we can relax a bit. My baby brother came by and mowed our lawn again. We are so appreciative of all the help!
I am feeling better, but I can sure tell when I overdo...either doing too many "things" or walking too much. I still cannot bend over or twist or turn...and that is really hard for me. I still have some numbness/pain especially across my buttocks and down my left leg and across to my big toe. It makes walking a bit tricky sometimes. I still have pain at the surgical site too...and a tiredness when I overdo. I am not over my UTI and have asked the Doctor to prescribe a different med. I saw my Rheumatologist last week...he offers no help for me, he just says "You have failed all the arthritis medications so I cannot help you." Alrighty then. I asked him about my Ferritin level being so high and he said "We will check it again in three months." So no help for the extreme fatigue or the extra pain in wrists and knees. I am not sure why I waste my time with him ( he is not a helper).
Far Guy is still struggling with nausea, burning mouth syndrome, acid reflux and tummy troubles. He is a trooper...he ate a bit more yesterday. Trying to find food that he will eat is a challenge. He gained a half a pound. He is awfully skinny...he weighs 137 now.
