I feel normal sort of, when lying down and still. But when I start to move things are not they were seem anymore as my hip joint really is killing me with pain. I am just literally being carried often with my armpits because I could not lift my emaciated body.
So there is a frustration obviously because my freedom to move around already had been taken from me. I could not enjoy cold showers in the middle of the night to refresh myself. Now I just have to take some pain medication just for me to be able to move a little without excruciating pain on my hip and tailbone.
So also riding our vehicle is a stressful activity as I have to be vigilant when it would run over a hump or bump. Sometimes it wasn't possible to avoid them so it would set the vehicle to shake and it would injure my tailbone more and I would scream in pain.
There is no possible way for me to get a comfortable position in our car because of my ribs. I could not lay down because the set was made hardened by my father by stuffing some rugs and wood under the seat. The seat actually had contributed a lot in my tailbone injuries so I feel being tortured while I am in the car. I may have to ask my father to fix that car seat again because it is uncomfortable sitting on it.
No offense, Buddy, but if I were you I would pull power down all that Steem and spend some consulting with the best doctors in Manila about your problem.
You can't depend on mediocre provincial doctors to pass final judgment about your health status. It sometimes pays to have the expert medical specialists have a second opinion.
Thank you for your concern @darthnava I know what you mean and I really am desperate in finding the right doctor. It will be my consultation day for the next few days to my endocrinologist. If the medicine that I am taking is really not working based on my upcoming iPTH test I would insist for the doctor to refer me to an endocrine surgeon.
I also have to consider a lot of factors like if the cost would exceed my funds I will not have any sources of funds anymore for the additional treatment plus my dialysis. But I already had set my plans.
That is good to know, my friend. May God be with you always.
I am here with you cryptopie. I wish I could visit you and we could watch funny movies together like the ones you share sometimes on your posts. But know that I am with you in spirit. I will pray for you after I write this message that God helps you with your pain. Also I read the other comment about seeking another doctor and powering down. It is something to consider. Remember Luke was a doctor in the Bible. God gave us medicines, and knowledge to help as well. You should seek out more treatments.. at least that is what I would do. One day we will have all of our tears wiped by his hand, and we will never have to say goodbye only hellos. There will be no pain. Until then keep your eyes on Jesus and he will see you through. You are a light in this world, and you give all of us strength. We can all see how strong you are. If you can get through this than we should all know we can surely take on our own crosses as well. You are an inspiration and I love you my brother <3
You know @cryptopie - I am always amazed that even though you are in so much pain.. you still manage to find the strength to write. It shows an incredible amount of resilience. Stay strong!!! xxx
We and all of our wishes are all with you friend. It will be all right soon!

That horrible must be serious, not being able to enjoy sleeping or leaving home for a while due to potholes or other things! I hope you feel better
