The Holiday was totally amazeballs and just what the doctor ordered, In fact they should prescribe sunny holidays for those recovering!!! I feel like a new woman...... well not quite but it certainly lifted my spirits and cheered me up again. It was beautifully hot and warmed the old bones up, and we spent lots of lazy days on the beach or in the hotels garden. We pottered around the town a little a night for our late tea's and to visit the beach near the hotel for the best sunset views on the whole island. It was sheer heaven, and physically,mentally and spiritually i needed it. For 9 days we could forget chores,bills,medicals,doctors and hospitals and be pampered and catered for.
Although it's all there when you get back, you feel renewed so it takes the sting out. The hip played up every day but i took a full days dose of Tramadol and Co-codamol to help cope with the situation. And a sheer bloody mindedness really helped too.
Well the next appointment is the 18th July and i thought it was just for a Cortisone Injection and MRA but i have found out they are knocking me out for the entire time, so they can examine the hip and joint without the hinderance of me moaning and the pain. In one way i feel blessed that Mr O wants to examine the hip properly rather than open me up and see, and he is taking the problem seriously (something i have struggled with, with other doctors and physiotherapists) But the otherhand i'm terrified of going to sleep once again, fear the pain the examination will bring and the decisions to be made afterwards. I guess i will know more and i should have a better idea of what is going on. So catch you guys in a few weeks time when it's all done and i'll have something to tell you lol...........
