hip problems

Hi
I have the same problem .. But only 1 side thus far
Sometimes I can't sleep on that side either ..

Hi Thanks
I just went to my Lovely Rheumatologist today and he's sending me for a;
Whole Body Bone Scan Also a Bone Density Scan plus a heap of blood tests
and then he wants me to Skype him to talk about the results
so I guess i'll find some answers to the hip pains then
Chartreux poor kittens I know my cat hates thunder as well,
seems we are having simular weather as we have a few storms lately and weird earlier this week it Snowed then a few days latter Sun Shine then back to Storm Clouds so the joints Literally don't know what to do

No more breaking down for either of us, okay...we need cloned body parts with microscopic nano bots, that's all....

I've had that bone scan and it is so very un pleasant. I had to take extra meds that day and loads of water as it can dry you up...when you go back it'll take about 2to3 hours...don't move in any way. I had muscle spasms during this that they couldn't get a very good scan. I can't have that wedge under my leg and she put in under me and bam the muscle spasms would not let up...and it gets extremely close to you, and she didn't use valum for me which made it harder for me...was afraid hurting and muscle spasming.... I sure hope they take better care of you for this test...
Sorry about you kitty drooling. Maybe do a google search, my kitties are good today...

Hi Thanks it is Tomorrow and I'm preparing with the Water
I did Google my cat drooling and first thing it said - cats Don't Drool, ! then it said -
But if they do it is a sign of Extreme Affection,
or Rabies - and as he doesn't have that I guess my puddy cat Loves Me.
he was a rescue kitten I rescued his mother she had a boot imprint in her head where she'd been kicked and hence she was a bit dopy we found out she was pregnant and when she had them she dropped one and ran away from it then the next etc. we went around picking them up opening the sack doing cpr and "Yoshi" the one I kept was dropped on the back step we hand reared them so I guess he made a solid connection he's always been a special type of cat
we found homes for the other 3 and the mum went to a friends barn to keep mice down as she was afraid of people and everything there she was left alone with their other cat.

not really RA related but well family

well I had the scans done
all went pretty well, the bone density scan was easy altho I didn't like having my legs up on the block (hurt my hip)
then I got the radioactive injection and had a quick scan done then sent away for 2 hrs and return for the Big Whole Body Bone Scan
now I am Hopelessly Claustrophobic and it was ok till the xray plate came So Close to my head I could hardly see around it and then I went thru the CT tunnel
but I actually held it together and 1 hr latter it was all done But Ouch my Hips Hurt from being held in 1 position
so now wait for results
