    sorry it took me awhile to get back to you, been busy my brother was here from out of State with my niece.

    I am doing not too bad. Besides slipping on wet pavement and landing on my tailbone.so I'm sore. I'll be having a minor revision surgery on 19th.

    I hope all goes well with your surgery and that you start to feel better soon

    ouch that's pain is awful. I broke my tail bone. Over 20 yrs ago. It took months to heal.. get one of those special pillows to help it heal.

    Good luck with your surgery as well. 💞

    I, too, broke my tailbone - about 28 years ago. My DH found me a special pillow at a medical supply store - square with a "V" cut out for my tailbone area to hang over open space so there was no pressure on it. I took it everywhere with me. Hope you heal quickly, PNWBCgirl!

    Hey chickie I wanted to check in real fast. I got great news on Monday. I went for my pre op check and I am finally healing. He wants to wait for surgery. I took a long good look at my history. I heal slow..no question. He is taking that very serious. The post op for this is 10-14days. He said mine would be 6 weeks. That is a really long time to have a super sore butt. Plus sepsis. He is very afraid. So with that he is really being cautious. Since my meds are finally changing things he wants to wait. I knew I was doing better but it would get better,go back to hurting. But NOTHING like before. I literally have never ever felt pain like that in all of my life. I have had 5 kids without pain meds,gastric bypass,hernia repair,hall bladder removal,extensive dental surgery that ended with a separated palate.. literally painful carp. This situation got the golden crown of horror :)

    oh I guess I need to check pm . I am doing well. Been in a little funk today. The reality of being done done has given me the wow it is over now time to figure out life again . The last 2.5 years has been Surgery-recovery- get ready for next surgery. Routine . Not complaining I have been cancer free.The revision fixed my dimple I had on one side. So now the PS just wants to wait 6 months to make sure it stays away.

    awww I understand. I'm in the same boat but still trying to live a normal life with broken parts..lol it's hard because I have to work. Our house payment is high. Originally when we bought this house my husband had a different job. Due to Federal changes he was dismissed and had to get another job,still federal. But the pay is different and zero overtime.Plus my Mom passed and that was a good part of the payment. I can only do all my care in spurts and very limited. That makes healing hard and very very planned. If I have a glitch,which I do all the darn time,it makes me panic.
