Carnation, how did your ortho evaluation go? It’s scary not being able to walk so I hope they are able to help you. Hi Violet, Well it was another evaluation that wasn’t. Pretty much as expected 🤔We do not know what’s wrong 🤔 so I did have trigger point injections with lidocaine in the piriformis a...

Hi Eraser,
I like that way of thinking. So good for the soul.

Hi Violet, Ten months after RFA It’s still affecting my sciatic nerve. I can hardly walk any more. I have an appointment for an orthopedic evaluation this month. I will definitely ask about the TENs unit also having a muscoskeletal ultrasound of the hip area. No amount of sticking needles or PT wil...

Thank you for letting me know! I do that too plus very little massage on this area. Sometimes I feel relieved; sometimes it irritates me more. How is your sitting pain? Do you feel better? I got a call from a hospital to schedule another nerve block, and I cannot make a decision about it. I'm too s...

Yes I also have sciatica after nerve blocks that lasts for months. I very much though that it was actually caused by the block as that doesn't make sense. It was probably piriformis syndrome. 👋Hello Eraser! Right it doesn’t make sense. I agree I think piriformis is mad over it. I’ve been to four pa...

Hey Eraser, I'm thinking about you and saying some prayers for you today. Hope everything goes well and you get a great life back soon! Violet Many thanks, Dr Bollens and team were very professional. He confirmed compression in Alcocks canal as I suspected. I feel as though I am already showing sig...

Hi Carnation, I have a vague memory of going of doing a minor bowel prep the night before the surgery. But it was no big deal at all. I might have just had to take a laxative. April I am having surgery tomorrow and it has been suggested so far. Hi Carnation, I have a vague memory of going of doing ...

Is bowel prep usually required before surgery ? Drinking prep and being on the toilet in a hotel room for 12 hours ? I’m afraid to ask this question 😳 You have a date for surgery? I wouldn't have thought you would have to do so. Plus, patients don't usually find bowel prep an issue. No date yet for...
