Re: not coping

@outlander it sounds like the pain specialist didn't offer any hope for you? I'm upset for you about that 😞 What did they say?

Thanks for your message about my glasses, they are still freaking me out as I can see blurriness around (outside) the glasses and when I put them on or off. The lenses themselves are fine, I can see well through them. People are telling me I'll get used to it...so I guess it'll all be OK.

Sending heaps of 💙 and wishes for pain relief...

Re: not coping

hey @NatureLover
basically in short they told me i have 2 rare nerves that have been damaged and theres no real treatment for them not even medication wise to manage pain. One of them is know as one of the most painful nerves to damage. They have given me a task to try out to see if it might help however i reacted badly to the numbing cream and then once the cream wore off i was in even more agony. so not sure wher that leave me. i see them again in june but i could see about going there earlier for a review. i did email the clinic who has refferred me onto the rehab team to see if they can maybe alter the task i need to do a little so i can still give it ago.

im glad the lenses are at least ok, i did read that your trying to wear them abit more. hopefully the blurriness goes for you. i never encountered that with mine though so i hope it doesnt last long so you will get the full benefits of the ne glasses

nice to see you too @Clawde and @Former-Member :heart;

Re: not coping

@outlander I'm so very sorry to hear that. Are the rare nerves in your mouth, from the dental surgery that went wrong?

And that truly sucks about the numbing cream 😞 I hope the task can be altered.

Thanks for your good wishes. Sending much 💙

Re: not coping

Thank you @outlander ... I wish the same for you Li'l One. 😊💓

Hi @Anastasia 👋🌺

Actually I have had my slice of goodness for the day already. I just returned from my appointment with the travelling breast prosthesis lady. She only comes to my local town, one day every 6 weeks. I got there a bit early, and went straight in.

I came away with a soft form external prothesis that fits into my bra ... its comfy, supporting and evens me up. So ... $235 later ... Eek. The good news however, is that Medicare will reimburse the full amount. The lady had me fill in the necessary paperwork while I was there, and will send it all off to Medicare for me, along with receipts etc. But she said it will likely take about 3 weeks to come through.

I hope you have a fairly commitment free day today Outlander? Also hope you hear back from the specialist about a change to your trail, and also perhaps an earlier review than planned. Sounds like it could be worthwhile.

Hi also to @Snowie ... you have been very quiet the past few days and I am a little worried about you. Same too with your ECT buddy @Eve7 , who I believe was due to recommence ECT from today. Really hope you are okay Eve, after your torrid time several nights ago. Would love to hear from you as soon as you're up to it sweetheart.

Hi also @NatureLover and @Sans911 ... hope you are doing better now Sans. Much love to you.

Emelia 😊💕
