... On Jun 21, 9:48 pm, "Kyla =^,,^=" Thanks Lee, will post an update when I find out. Love, Kyla Please do. I hope it is something simple to treat. And be careful about putting an arm over your head. -- Will in New Haven Will do..I hope it is simple to treat too. I've never heard of the arm over the head thing.does this mean I cna't reach UP for things? *or ...??? Mishi said the same thing in another reply, *Wow. Love Kyla Kyla, Did you have to put your arms over your head for the CT-scan? I know, for me, because of some issues I have, that hurts like heck... Not to mention after a CT, the knowlege that you've just been hit with a 3 year level of radiation makes me hate the suckers. You mentioned straps...? In ambulances, especially if they have to start an IV while moving they have to strap you pretty darn tight to keep you as immobile as possible. Maybe that pulled on your ribs/ muscles? Hope all goes well with the doc. Joani |

Purrs for Kyla please
Kyla, Did you have to put your arms over your head for the CT-scan? I really don't remember..I do know a machine pressed down really hard on my shoulder, hurting my torn rotater cuff on my right arm. I know, for me, because of some issues I have, that hurts like heck... I'll ask them tomorrow if I raised my arm during that... Not to mention after a CT, the knowlege that you've just been hit with a 3 year level of radiation makes me hate the suckers. Oh wonderful..no wonder I glow in the dark, and with that blasted dye too..ugh. You mentioned straps...? In ambulances, especially if they have to start an IV while moving they have to strap you pretty darn tight to keep you as immobile as possible. Maybe that pulled on your ribs/ muscles? No IVs were used in the ambulances, just in the ERs.. Both the rides were pretty rough and I was strapped in tight for the 2 trips and on the tables during the tests too. Hope all goes well with the doc. Joani Thank you so much Joani. I'll post an update Thurs or Friday. Love Kyla |

UPDATE 3 : Purrs for Kyla please
Well, we went in to the neurologist yesterday, saw the PA, who is a well
informed really nice person and he explained some of the test results to me. Seems I have some narrowage in my neck veins and ones in my legs too as well as my arteries, but no clots, thank God. He is concerned about the xx narcotic pain med I am taking, as it is supposed to be used for short term use and I've been on it since 07, and he is referring me to a pain specialist. I'm taking only a half dose of it now...also, we're weaning me off my seizure meds..am taking only 2 at night instead of 3 for 2 weeks, then one tab, then none...yaaaaaaaaaay The swelling in my feet and legs has gone down considerably already.. I was supposed to go in for and echo cardiogram tomorrow n my heart, but nobody got back to me on that. It can wait till next week. I am looking for a new GP as he is just a pill pusher and an ass, with a self righteous attitude that I can't stand any more..who we've been seeing for over 20 years. No word on the rib owie yet, but will get that checked out next week..he thinks it might be a pulled muscle.. I'm gonna be okay, but it might take awhile, to get these crap drugs out of my system. Pookie wanted to be fed and I was napping and the brat jumped right on my ribs and I yelled at him good. Mrrrrrrrrrt!! as Mosey would say. Thank you again for caring about me and I just love you. Love Kyla |

I am so frustrated, I am near tears..thanks for your support purrs and prayers I really need them and they do help.. I'm trying to be strong...

We have lots of resuable containers from going out to restuarants and takeing leftovers home. I save these containers. The yucky rancid glob of drug goop is then put in the container and snapped shute followed by putting rubberbands on the oustide. Next the mess is put in the freezer until Trash day. We take trash out early in the morning the day they are due - NEVER leave our trash out overnight. Our trashcans are RubberMaid whith locking handles on either side. So far my system works for us, we are not violating an laws, are being kind to the enviromnet, keeping little critters and curious little kids out of the yucky. Last week we added the dead body of a small squirrel to the mix. Well, there ya have it. What on nut did to attempt to keep poisonings on the downlow. |
