SAW my CEMENT---+sciatic-ZIPPO

Post by barbaranoela »

Went to the ortho- cus of my sciatic issues---naturally had an Xray taken and what a sight to see-----imagine getting Xcited seeing where the cement was injected into my vertbre!!!!

NOW--it appears that my issues are being caused due to the fact that I am NOT walking equally on both legs/feet---whatever is connected-- :lol:
CUS of my FUNGUSED TOE NAIL that this foot dr. JUST decided to remove---NOW he WILL HEAR my MOUTH in 9 days~~~
The ortho sees NO other problem causing me this pain in the butt--running down my legs!!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

I now have to go for *therapy* and the therapist also asked me *how come he waited a whole year before removing the nail???!!!!!
THIS is causing my PAIN!!! I just thought I was *un-balanced* in the *noggin* :devil:

Now if I wasnt a *lady* I might say some very nasty words!!! but I did to Mr. Louie---- :thumbsup:

Till later---

Good Grief!!!!
If it isn't one thing, it's another, isn't it.
Sounds like that toe is causing you yet another problem.. A real pain in your butt!!!! No pun intended..
Hopefully, once that toe is healed and the soreness is gone, you can resume walking normally and the sciatic problem will be diminsih too..

:hug:
Love

Barbara,

I have a friend who had a stroke at the age of 38, (roughly 10 years ago), and he complains about constant back problems, due to the fact that his left leg is very weak, and his left arm is pretty much immobile. Despite his handicap, he works very hard, and the back problem is obviously due to a combination of unbalanced load distribution while walking, and lifting heavy objects with only one arm. I don't see much hope for his back issues to improve, though, unless he stops working so hard.

Sciatic nerve damage is not to be taken lightly, but as Dee says, surely your problem should correct itself as your toe heals. I certainly hope so, anyway.

Luve,
Galahad

Dee and Galahad--cant say that I had a DULL year :shrug: and YES, I am sure that once I put equal balance on each side of me--this *pain in the butt etc.* will dimish--being that the X-ray showed no disc malfunctions--

thanks for your support-----I always need a *boost* here and there

Hi Barbara,

You are definitely a survivor but you have had way more than one should deal with in life. Take care and hope your toe heals quickly.

Love, Maggie
