Wishing you all the best Sue, and I hope whatever treatment you have works this time and you can get your life back.

I feel awful that I spent so much time reassuring you about the op and then for all this to happen to you. I do appreciate how well my own went.

I'll be thinking of you xxx

So sad that you have had to fight so hard to find the reason for your pain. Wishing you luck with your appointment and hoping that you will soon be pain free.

Wishing you the very best of luck Sue, hope all goes to plan and you are pain free (or the pain is at a level that does not need morphine).

After fighting for just over 6 months to get an answer to my chronic post op pain I finally have a scan booked on Tuesday.

I can see no point in going back into theatre again for another pain block as the last one didn't work.

I won't bore you all with the agony and symptoms I have had since Jan 4th but I have been at wit's end with this but gave in and now take morphine which I didn't want to take because the drug and I don't suit each other.

Once they have ruled out (hopefully) vascular damage then perhaps I can get a proper diagnosis and treatment. The last muttering from the surgeon was scraping the muscle away from the bone...nice!

Physio referred me to a podiatrist and I have a higher insole now, not high enough yet but the adjustment has to be gradual to get to 3/4".

If it wasn't for my GPs, physios, nurses I would have been left to get on with it!

I have a big mouth but what about those patients who won't or can't make a fuss, it's them I feel sorry for when treatment fails.

Sue xx
