Unrelenting Pain

After our wonderful day at the waterpark yesterday where I knew I was pushing it, I woke up in the middle of the night to horrible leg cramps and back spasms.

I am so thankful to being able to see my Rheumatologist this week and my general practitioner because we need to have some long heart to heart discussions on how to bring me back to good health.

My GP is an amazing woman and she will listen to what I am saying, she believes I know what I am talking about since it is MY BODY  and she will help me work out a plan.

Right now we need to find out why I keep having silent migraines with all the dancing lights and if it is the cause of the floaters in my eyes all of a sudden because I didn't have them until I began getting clusters of these headaches!

Also my arms, hands  and mouth have been going numb!  I do not have high blood pressure, so this is a huge concern to me and perhaps somewhere I have a pinched nerve?

Lots of stuff going on and the only way I can figure it out I believe is to take one problem at a time and not overwhelm myself.

I also have 2 impending surgeries...1 to have some hardward taken out of my foot and another to take a lipoma out of my rib cage area that possibly may be causing left side numbness.

We will figure it out, I must just be patient!

Hi there, What a lot of things you have going on! I'm sorry you've been in pain; I understand the back spasms(I've had a bad back); also I have those floaters too-the eye doctor said it is old age(but I'm only 61). Praying your doctors can find a way to treat you! Praying for our Healer to touch you today.

I hope you get relief from the pain. My hubby is suffering from a pinched nerve.

Thanks so much, the floaters didn't happen until the cluster silent migraines began...just very concerned and the back spasms are awful! Thank you ladies, I am praying God takes control soon!

So sorry you are not feeling well. I sure hope you feel better soon. The trip to the watermark sounded like so much fun.
Take care,
