Thanks Holley, but I wasn't referring to itching to death. I have a post in here about when I had to have my left ovary and fallopian tube removed. THAT was a bitch! Oh, LOL I didn't see that one. Well, female stuff like that does suck and i hope there were no lasting negative effects. My Sister had to have her ovary removed when she was 6 months pregnant. They found a mass during her 20 week ultrasound.

Ooh that would suck. I had no lasting problems that I can tell. I was only 23 and had no children yet. I was worried and asked the doctor if it would be harder for me to conceive and he told me since I only had one ovary left, it would just work twice as hard and I'd still ovulate every month. Sure enough, a year later, I was expecting!

Wow! I am glad they finally found out what was wrong!!! You have been through quite a bit. That fall, the surgery, your recent bike accident. How are you doing now, by the way? To be honest Holley, I'm not doing as well as I ought to be. The extra physiotherapy isn't seeming to be helping at all. I will likely be going to see the surgeon again sometime is November. My shoulder is on the verge of becoming frozen, any time now it can and probably will become so. The pain is getting worse in my entire shoulder area and down my left arm. I'm getting to the point where I can't take it anymore. Sleep is getting harder and harder to go through. I'm frustrated with it, but I will keep doing what I'm supposed to do and hopefully see some benefits/results in the future. Jo, I've already used more than my share of nine lives. I've had lots of things happen to me, several of which I shouldn't have survived. I am both lucky and unlucky at the same time, I think. Lucky enough to survive, but unlucky enough to have to keep enduring with more.

I just thought of something, my dh brought home this foot thing home. It's called "Circulation Booster" He bought it because of my circulation and tingling feet. It was kind of uncomfortable to start with and actually made me tingle more, but I'm up to the fifth day using it now and it's almost starting to feel pleasant. I stared off on a low setting for only 10 minutes, might be something to help your circulation. Dh says he bought it the chemist. My massage lady says it's a good device. www.hightechhealth.com.au/circulation-boosterI posted this to Tina, but maybe something like this would help you too Sue.

That looks interesting, Jo, I'll have to look into it. Thanks! Wow Sue, that sounds rough. I'm so sorry. Just know that you are not completely alone. I know, and understand, how it feels to deal with pain every single day. It's very tiring, depressing, and it really weighs on you at times. Hell, it even causes me to feel guilty because I never feel like doing anything with my family that requires me to leave the house.
