I am so worried.....

Sorry, but this is about myself :o ; I am VERY worried about something right now. There is a hard pain in both sides of my hips (in the joint??). This is making it almost impossible to stand up fast from a chair, or couch, and bending down to pick up a cat is out of the question too :( . I know I will need to take anti-inflammatory pills; but the problem here is that I am NOT allowed to take any medicine that thins my blood: I already take those, and my blood is very thin now.
I didn't sleep last night because I couldn't stand laying on my left side,nor on my right side. Sleeping on my back is out of the question because I snore then :rolleyes:
I called a back-specialist this morning. I am lucky; someone gave up his appointment of 10.30 this morning; so I get it!!
Cross your tails and fingers for me please, I cannot take any more bad news now..... :(

I will update when I return back home!

Fingers crossed and prayers on the way. {{hugs}}

Hugs and prayers on the way.

here's hoping an adjustment helps you. not sleeping really stinks

I've started to have some flare ups of what I suspect is arthritis myself. I am referencing here an article about the anti-inflammatory properties of cherries. I eat the dried cherries and I do believe they provide some help for me.

A prayer and best wishes coming you way.

Back home from doctor. He did a echo, to see if there were fluid inside the joints, but he couldn't find any. He says that "of course" he wanted to know where the severe pain comes from; so he wants me to go to the hospital tomorrow for X-rays . I wonder what they will see on those :rolleyes: :confused: . I will have the results only NEXT week :eek: . In the meantime? All I can do is take lots of painkillers and hope that things won't get much worse :( :(
How depressing....... :(

Prayers and good thoughts are with you, Lut. I hope you get to feeling better real soon. Please let us know what the doctor says.

I'm sorry you are having this trouble. :( Having pain that just lingers
on & on can be very depressing. I do hope the Drs can find the source of the pain and offer an answer to your questions. Hang in there Lut. :)

I am so sorry to hear this. Did he say anything else would help - heating pads or something like that? My mom swears by heating pads when her hips hurt. Many prayers for you.

So sorry to hear about your pain, I do hope it improves to being tolerable while you wait for the results. My chiropractor does wonders when my hips are causing me grief, I thank goodness for his talent.

My thoughts and prayers are with you Lut :)

Fingers crossed they at least find some answers for you with these x-rays. Please let us know how it goes.

I'm sending tons of good thoughts your way.

I had someething similar happen just a couple months ago with one of my hips. It ended up being tendonitis. It was extremely painful to move, especially going from sitting to standing or vice-versa.
I hope it's something simple.

If you need anything, to talk or whatever om or emial me. Good luck sweetie!
