My BP is always within the normal range but my last pre op assessment. it shot through the roof and the nurse said go to your practice nurse....its possible its because you are in a hospital situation.
Called in to see the pratice nurse and she said the same and did my BP and said good grief...its never as high as that when I take it and she did it 3 times.....eventually sent me home with a BP monitor and instructions to take my own BP and record it a few times a day for 3 days and then go back...she averaged it out and decided it was OK...Thank goodness LOL

Hi Hileena
Good Luck, I suppose they still have to treat it has if you are having your THR, till you have your MRI.

hileena111

Thanks.......dont fancy being squashed with egg sarnies either lOL

I'll post when I get back....doubt that there will be much to tell.

Really waiting for this MRI then the results and the results of the blood tests then I might find out something.....if it is my back and I have to wait any length of time for something to be done...I'll buy crutches....I think I said in my other post he wouldnt let me have any....wants me to use the muscles as much as poss. not him that has the pain

Love
Hileena

Good luck for today, I'll be thinking of you whilst dipping the strawberries in my glass of fizz. Re the crutches - you do still use your muscles for perambulation, the crutches don't do everything! DD

Morning Hileena, morning other pocket dwellers,

bus is ready and I've doubled up on the peppermint creams to prevent provoking a violent incident



due to popular demand I've also changed the egg butties for cheese.

DD... hope you've brought plenty fizz and strawbwerries?

good luck Hileena...... hope all goes well and the BP comes down.

Hi Hileena,

Just running in to dive the pocket as you leave. Fingers crossed flower that it goes well. (((( )))) and don't squash us..... Cris xx

hileena111

Hi Thank you everyone and i will try not to squash anyone.
It was the usual pre op assessment, ecg, bp, bloods, height, weight etc. questionairres to fill in. Eventually went to see the OT....basically she said what did you have the last time and do you need the same LOL and that was it. Then for an x ray on the bad hip.....he was awful....didnt seem to know what he was doing and had me in all positions and would say I'll leave you like that incase i have to do another one so I'm very sore but still in one piece. The nurse had the bloods b ack from Tue {the ones to check if I had any other kind of arthur and she says everything seems fine}...so next thing is MRI on Monday.....you are all going to be so tired with pocket duty LOL

Love
Hileena

Hi Hileena,

Ah we don't get tired in pockets

Glad its all going ok for you.. hey are you ok in your self? I will lurk in the corner and make sure they look after you Monday! ((( ))) Cris who has very bad eyes just now, sorry xx

dorcas

Hi Hileena

good that the pre-ops done... but sorry you have been left so uncomfortable afterwards by the radiographer's 'table' manners!

I'm so happy that the blood tests didn't show up any other of arther's nasties. hope the MRI goes as smoothly.

It was a bit stuffy in your pocket and I had what felt like a hoof sticking in my side. :roll: enjoyed the fizzy 'hic' and the strawberries.

Hi Again,
Well I'm oK except tired and achey and a bit worried about what this MRI will show up......I'm trying to look on it that the THR will go ahead as arranged. Peter has had a couple of days where he hasnt done much work so he's going out at 5.30pm/6pm for a couple of hours to see if he can get anyone...He is a Social Reasearcher.....sometimes he can get people later easier than he can if he goes early. I've asked him to drop me off at the Metro Center with the scooter and pick me up when he is finished. Otherwise I'll sit here and mope or fall asleep.....It will cheer me up a bit. LOL
Will be on later
Love
Hileena

Hi Hileena, glad pre-op and bloods went well, just the MRI hurdle to go.
Some radiographers are great and some are awful. When I had x rays at my last post op - they got in a muddle and x rayed the wrong hip and had to do it again!

Aren't they wonderful LOL
