I had a nerve block last month. It was awesome. I felt great for about a month. (well, great is relative) my left hip always radiates pain and my doc and chiro both say aloth of scar tissue hooks from bowels up to joint and pulls and I say "ow" alot when I walk. It sucks. So, the nurse asked if I really needed a "cuckoo" shot and said "yes, uh huh, please...so I got an IV" doc starts poking around back in my sacroIliac area (that didn't feel so good) and keept burrying my face in the pillow, the nurse had to tell me to look at her (the doc finally said give her more) I'm a baby. But I could walk straight and it heldd until my accident (auto) 2 weeks ago.

It's good to hear that nerve blocks are working for you. I hope you'll be able to do another one when this one wears off.

Wellll...I don't know if it is perfect and will allow me to live pain free. I spent the day curled up crying and in pain...it wasn't fun....oh well..i'm sure things will be okay because it was such a busy day. I helped at my daughters all health day, and she had a meeting for her acadamics...we will try again. It just seems I can't do much and it frustrates the hell out of me.

I am going to request another nerve block, again for pain in my lo back upper sacrum...helps that area and also radiates to the pelvic area for a time. (then, like I said, I'm back to whining on the couch) I also have to find out what's up with my appetite. Not that I'm really complaining (because my weight went up by 30 pounds after being dx with IC...I think due to just trying eat stuff that goes down well) but I have no appetite anymore. I've lost 10 pounds in the last 2 weeks. People are starting to notice. but it's not a diet like thing....here it is the holidays and nothing looks good. Not a problems to pass on the cookies,candies, and other such stuff. I force myself to nibble something everyday but the nibbles are getting smaller. I ate 3 micro bites of a polish dog (without the bun...) it was way to salty...earlier today I had a sample of a cinamon bun at Starbucks. That's it. And that's sorta the way I have been eating. When I get fresh fruit I eat almost an entire piece, though. Well, maybe I can establish a record...the most weight lost during christmas...ha, ha.
