is it the PMR, the anti-cancer drugs or left over cancer treatment that is the cause ? some people have taold me their bodies have never been the same since chemo and radiation treatments....
doctors don't know..... they test, they prescribe, they commiserate and send me off with more pain....
i'm taking narcotics !!!!!! 4 times a day and now the rheumatologist has increased the steroid dosage once again on a trial basis.....he told me that the latest research on PMR states that patients must just get used to living on steroids as there seems to be no other treatment that works....so he upped the dose of the prednisone - a terrible, awful drug to be living on....
the worst is laying in bed at night - the pain pills only take the edge off.... mornings are hard to get moving with the accompanying stiffness (PMR related)
chronic pain is exhausting so i feel tired all the time......
my 6 month check up mammogram and ultrasound is this thurs - let 's all think CLEAR,CLEAR, CLEAR.....i'm more scared and nervous than i thought.....
MEANWHILE....i keep dancing......
it is a true life-saver
