Come on over to my house tonight and watch me glow
in the dark.
Radiation and bone scan today - WHOO HOO!!!
I wonder what color I will be. :)
You feeling OK today? I haven't seen any bizarre posts yet.
No - I feel like crap, thank you very much.

Chemo today and it didn't go well.

I hate chemo.

~~ mutter ~~

However, tomorrow is another day.
Damn.......it sounds serious. I wish you the best of luck in getting
better and beating whatever medical condition you have Tom.

BTW: I spent close to an hour in an MRI tube today. I have had
difficulty walking since the operation due to the loss of muscle
control in my calf and quad in my right leg. I am hoping that it is
just swelling on the nerves that is causing the problem.
Did they fuse the disc?

Had a friend who had a L4/5 disc hernia - took him
about a year to get completely better after a fusion.

No. They cut away the herniation.

Have you started PT yet?

The nerves went whacko about 8 weeks after my laminectomy and discectomy
and they continue to give me problems two years later.

My surgeon did not want in house PT knowing they need to justify their time
and would have me doing things he did not want me doing.

I do leg lifts from the sitting and lying position, as well as walking as
much as I can.............PT ordered by the surgeon and things I can do on
my own without a therapist at my side.

This MRI will tell the story on what is wrong............hopefully showing
that it is all due to inflammation from the surgery. ;-)
