March 27, 2010

I'm anxious to get this cast off but now I have another bad problem with that same side. Something has gone wrong in my shoulder and the pain is so excruciating at times that I want to cry. I'm not sure if I tore my rotator cup or a tendon but it's awful. I was just being able to reach with that arm too. This is a set back for me. I sure hope the wrist has healed enough to be able to wear a brace. I know I still have problems with it. I can't turn my arm so my hand faces up. It hurts when I do that. I'm not even sure if I'll be able to drive for a while. If this shoulder hurts like that I probably won't. I won't be able to push one of those heavy carts around at Walmart either probably. I will take it easy and have someone go with me the first time. Sure will be nice to get in my car and go though. My shift arm is not easy to shift so not sure if my weak wrist will be able to handle that yet.
I am bleeding more from my rectum these days and last night I ached all night long. So I guess this cancer will continually get worse. If it comes to the point where I can't take the pain then I will get pain killers but for now I will hold off taking even the Ibuprofen. But with this shoulder I might have to take some. I hate to though because that will make me bleed more I think. I'm always trying to juggle what I eat and take because of my liver and gall bladder too. Just got too many things wrong at the moment. But I'm hoping I will make it through summer and be able to go more.
I haven't heard from the medical supply lady yet so I guess if I do get that scooter it won't be till summer at this rate. But I'm going to try not to need it anyway.
I might have to ride in one of those stupid carts at Walmart too. But if the seats aren't adjustable then I won't be able to because I won't be able to push myself up to get out of it. When I do get there I'll check them out.
I can't write any more. My shoulder is hurting and my hand feels like it's swelling up. This cast is so damn tight.. I tried cutting it but it's too hard. Hurry up Tuesday!!!

I've been thinking about you and the big day tomorrow. I sure hope they take it off so you will have one less thing to bother you. You have enough.
