I have posted quite a lot over the past few days, which a lot of you know is not like me,
But I need to shut myself away now, because I am in so much pain, all over, just broke down to hubby, I am so ashamed of what I am putting him through some thing always wrong with me, I've just got over yet another infection,now with all this pain I've started with what I think is another boil under my arm,I've waited nearly three years to see my rheumy, since finding out about my kidney, I know I have OA in spine, hips, shoulders & neck & OP in left hip because of xrays, but I'm not allowed any anti inflammatory because of kidney, just morphine patches, & paracetamol for pain
I'm sorry to moan but, feel so upset, trying to hang on until seeing him Friday. I haven't a clue what to say to him because I get all tongue tied like a fool, he's new so never seen him before.
thank you for listening to me moaning :roll:
Love Sue xx

OH Sue love, you moan away as much as you feel you need to - after all if you can't moan to us who can you moan to?!
I'm so sorry that you have been hanging on for so long for answers, and that there are other problems preventing you from getting the meds that you need.
please don't hide away if you are hurting this much - we are here to support you and we'll be here for you whenever you need us.
PM me if you like rather than posting in 'public' if that helps.
As for the new consultant - I can only tell you that from my recent experience, sometimes when a consultant retires (as mine has) and a new face appears, it can lead to positive outcomes .... a new face may be just what you need.
if you find it hard to tell them in person how things are for you then why not write them down .... I did and it really helped me and them not to mention it is quicker and you can't forget what you want to say
loads of hugs

From one Sue to another, please don't do that, we are all here for you,I know what it's like I've been there myself. I just wanted to say I agree with everything Wonky said.
Sending love and gentle ((())) hugs,

Oh queenfan, I am so sorry. It's been rough for you for ages now, and good for you for letting it all out. Don't feel you have to go because you really don't. Use us to support you - we know what it is all like, we know how hard it can be to manage sometimes, we understand the frustrations and setbacks. Don't feel you have to go, because you really don't, but you have to do what is best for you. Please look after yourself, and be kind to yourself. DDHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0

Hi Queenfan sorry you are still feeling so terrible. You do what is right for you, if you want/need to post don't worry about us we can take it!! Sit down with OH and start to make notes for your appointment so that you remember to say everything you want to say so you don't feel like you wasted/had an unsatisfactory appointment.
SpeedyI have had OA since mid twenties. It affects my hips and knees. I had a THR on the left aged 30 and now have a resurface-replacement on the right - done May 2010.0 -
Hi Sue
Sorry that things are getting you down at the moment... hope the appointment goes well this Friday and the consultant can offer you something to help.
As others have said - take someone with you if at all possible.

Hi queenfan
I really do feel for you, I have OA in my hips , back and knees, my GP has just taken me of anti inflammatories because of my kidneys...so I do know what you are going through.
I am on gabapentin for my back, it helps nerve pain,and co codamol..plus amitriptyline at night.
I do hope you get some more help off your GP, have you been referred to a pain clinic at all.
When you feel like it you know where we are, it really does help to talk to people that are going through the same.
Sending you loads of very gentle hugs (((((((())))))

Dear Sue
I have noticed that you have been posting lately and it has been good to see. I am sure hubby is devastated to see you so unwell and you should not feel ashamed. You have been and are going through so much with health issues. You call in, dear Sue, whenever you want or are able and you will always get a welcome from many on here.
Seeing a new medic, can sometimes bring rewards, Sue. He may have some new/fresh ideas of how best to go about things. I sincerely wish you well with your appointment on Friday. You so deserve to hear some better news on your health. I am sure hubby is going with you on Friday, if at all possible. Make a few notes if you can, but I am sure hubby will be able to say all that is necessary, if need be.
Love and gentle hugs

Hi queenfan
the ups and the downs, i had a bad patch when i joined the fourum i was feeling much like you are now. it was hard to look forward pain seems neverending, and pain was bringing me low down!! i have pain in all the same places you have. over the last few weeks iv eased my self up in spirit, and reading on here how others feel i relised i am not alone. neither are you
i went to see my gp who did not seem to understand a word i was saying due to the fact that i probobly bombarded her with too much, she can only deal with one joint at a time!!! where as i am in pain in too many joints at a time for her to comprehend!! how does she think that feels??? :? she sent me for x rays said its OA i said YES I KNOW!! (i was diagnosed 20 years ago it in my notes!!)WHAT ABOUT THE PAIN?? she doesent really want to know. due to heart problems andasthma i can not take anti inflamators ect.
its not you its there peception of what you say, i belive unless you have the same you will never understand, and thats why they dont. lucky them. good luck hope you get a doc who has arthritis!! and you may get a good result
iv just read through my post. :? i am suposed to cheer you up!! sorry :oops: never the less i hope you feel your spirit lifted soon0 -
:oops: :? go through the emotions hope u get there soon0

Thinking of you, with much love, Sue.
Do what you need to do. Sometimes hearing - and feeling - other people`s pain can become too much, in addition to your own. I know this from my own work. You`ll come back stronger for a little break.....Ange.x.0 -
Hi Sue,
Good luck on Friday and I hope you get some answers and they find a way of easing your pain. I know you are run down flower, and when things have settled a bit for you maybe you could pop in now and then. No pressure, it would just be nice to hear from you.
Take one day at a time,
Hugs,
Ix0 -
Oh you poor thing, I just want to send you a big hug. Please let us know how Friday goes. What I do is write a note of the things I want to mention and any questions I want to ask - that helps when you get tongue tied. Can you take someone with you?
