not my week
Well it has just not been my week so far. I was suppose to be going in for surgery this morning. You see, I have a very bad back, I have had two surgeries all ready and now there is nothing else they can do for me. Then my pain management Dr said let try this pump. Its called an interthecal pump. Not sure if I spelled that right. They put a small disc in my abdomen, about the size of a hockey puck, and a line runs from that to my spine. It slowly drips pain meads right at the pain source. Well I failed my stress test Monday, so they wont do the surgery. I guess the is either a blockage or part of my heart is not working right. They say the left ventricle is only working about 57%. So not only will I not be getting rid of my back pain, I have something wrong with my heart..... Now I have to wait for an appointment with a cardiologist....
