One more day to go to get the results of the shoulder MRI. I should know by this time tomorrow. Good news or bad news. COnsidering I wasn't called a few days afterward by the rheumy office (which is what happened back in Sept. 07 when an MRI scan showed 2 meniscus tears), I have my hopes up that it isn't anything more than a diagnosis of advancing arthritis, although it could also be a huge bone spur poking at my bicep tendon which is why it has gotten tendinitis several times. We'll see!
Meanwhile we attended a lovely wedding on Friday afternoon. I did wear heels for about 2 hours, after which I switched to my sneakers which I had in my purse. My ankles are feeling better but a couple of times a day at least, I've felt this kind of shocky electric feeling there, especially if I put my foot down wrong and my arch gets hit in the wrong spot. I see Dr. Gray on Friday afternoon and will mention it.
Twice in the last couple of weeks, I managed to jar my right leg, making the whole thing, the new knee and everything else. Youch. Left knee had some sharp pains last night. Surprise surprise (not). And my left hip has been aching since we got back from Boston. Urgh!
Meanwhile I got my itemized hospital bill which to me confirms that I had spinal anesthesia for my partial knee replacement, even though I had said I didn't want. I keep thinking perhaps I agreed to it when I was in LaLa Land and don't remember anything. Who knows! Wednesday marks 9 months, which is hard to believe. I'll be back tomorrow with the results of the scan.
