feeling down and sick of pain

jilly

I am really down today , some of you may remember i have had a knee replacment 3 months ago , i also have inflamirtary arthritis .
My knee replacement is doing well but my shoulders , neck, back, feet are all playing up . I also have had trouble with my ear and jaw, for the last few months i have had really bad tinnitus and keep going deaf in my left ear. I told the doctor about it and she thinks it is something to do with crystals in my inner ear . She wanted to send me to see a specialist but i cant face any more messing with at the hospital.
I havent even got dressed today and feel really down and in pain. Why do things just keep coming to drive use mad .
Sorry but i am so fedup , i have had enough of my body . jillyx

Oh Jilly my love
Im really sorry you are in so much pain, it just not fair is it, you get one thing sorted and now your shoulder and the rest have joined in.
Please try and have some rest, I use my wheat cushion on my shoulder and neck, they really do ease the pain.
Here are some hugs to be going on with ((((())) and if talking to us lot helps then I am happy to listen, you take care xxx

Thanks Barbara and Clare ,It makes you feel so soft moaning all the time , and people dont understand how much pain it causes unless they have to . It is a good job we have this site to come too .
I am really fed up of hospitals and doctors, perhaps it will be better when the warm weather comes . thanks again for your help.....jillyx

Jilly, I'm so sorry to hear you're having such a rough time. You've been through a lot with your knee replacement as well. I hope you managed to get some rest, sometimes it's the only thing you can do. Gentle hugs, and I hope today is a better day for you.
Rita.

Jilly, jilly, jilly ease up on yourself, yes? Any surgery is a major invasion to the body (even the 'minor' stuff is an affront) and it can take some while to restore one's equilibrium apart from the healing etc. Factor in that the arthritis is having a snap at you, simply because it can, doesn't help either. Come and tell us how it is, my lovely, because we all know what it's like and we do understand. ((())) DD

Hi Jilly,

Late seeing this but really hoe today is a better day for you.

The ear thing.... flower go get it looked at cus I had huge ear trouble as a youngster and the surgical intervention was not that bad and gave me back a whole chunk of hearing... so good to have t back its worth thinking about.

I know sick of doc and consultants as well but ... Jilly it could well help. Leaving a ((( ))) and a free range egg with a blue shell that has added cheer up and bone ease in it Cris x

Hello Jilly

I am so sorry things are so rough for you at the mo and that you are struggling so much.

Thinking of you lots.

Love Tilly xxx

(((Jilly))), sorry you are suffering so much. It takes a while for the body to restore itself after surgery and any upheaval tends to cause a flare. Maybe you need to call the rheumy nurse and tell them how bad things are?

Vent away, and be kind to yourself to day.

jilly

Thanks you lovely people ,again you have come to the rescue . I am still feeling down but I am fighting back. I think the weather warming up would help the cold makes arther worse for me.
The problem with my ear goes back a few years, i have been to the specialist but they dont know what it is , they just said it must be the arthritis . I think i should go and see them again thanks again for your help................jillyxx

Hugs Jilly.

Sorry to read that you are having such a bad day - i hope and pray it gets better for you.

Maybe seeing a specialist regarding your hearing might be a good idea at leaste then you will know what you are dealing with?

Take Care

Hey Jilly big (((HUG))) to you, I've not been feeling good so I totally understand how you've been feeling, this morning was the 1st day in nearly 3 weeks of feeling totally rubbish that I woke up and thought wow I actually feel ok enough to get up and do somethings! I'm still suffering a little with my flare up but I think that's starting to feel a little better to! Keep fighting it but also rest, lots of rest that's how I got my mojo back!
