the pain pit

my shoulder and arm are getting a bit stronger but i think i have a long way to go to get my strength back.....the 2x weekly phy. therapy now involves a lot more exercise which can be excrutiating.... after the exercise for 30 minutes, the therapist does some soft tissue work and then i'm attached to the TENS machine and pretty much wrapped in ice....it all feels good while it's happening but the rest of the day - i am pretty sore.....
i've cut back on my prednisone dose so i am also experiencing more pain from the PMR and the arimidex drug.......
i wonder if i will ever have a pain free day or nite.....
