Could use some encouragement

Really, this is a positive thing, but it's also a very overwhelming thing.

As I mentioned before, I saw my neurosurgeon late last week. He said he was referring me to an orthopedic surgeon to look at my shoulder.

I expected another month wait, but late Monday evening, I received an automated call saying I had an appt. on Wednesday. Wow! So I went yesterday, and the ortho gave me a steroid shot in my shoulder, and said he wants me to do PT, 3 days a week for a month, and then re-evaluate.

I had just gotten home from his office when my phone rang, and the PT center said I have an appt. that afternoon!!! Well, it's almost an hour away from me - just down the street from the surgeon's office. UGH!

I could have said no, but I want to get this show on the road, so I went. I like them, and it was a positive experience other than the driving!

I just need to be able to do all of this traveling, and I'm overwhelmed by it.

I'm already exhausted from my recent trip, and feel like I can't get enough sleep. Sluggish is an understatement.

Practicing my positive mantras, and praying for strength to keep up the pace.

JM,

Hi

Sounds like you have had a busy day but pleased you have not been placed on a long waiting list that is good news. I have had a few steroid injections over the years and have found them helpful so I hope they work well for you.

Keep us posted.
