Hey dere, Prof!
*Hugs and smooches back*
The knee has been okay.
I finally have an answer for the back and hip pain.
I have spinal stenosis (lumbar).
They are going to “shoot it” on Monday with some meds to calm it down.
If that doesn’t work, we might be looking at surgery.

Every time I ask about the knee, I think I might have to duck behind the nearest piece of furniture. I'm glad it's getting better.

Lumbar issues are hell. I have them on occasion, even though the x-rays and bone scan showed nothing amiss.

Hope things feel better.

Good to see ya! I've been busy busy busy with Brahms, which ends tonight.

Starting next week, I'll be listening to Seattle Chamber Music Festival concerts on Seattle's KING-FM thanks to the miracle of the Internet. On Friday nights in July, I'll have my eye on the Canteen thread but my ear on my computer speakers.

I had and I repeat, HAD the same thing. They shot it up to clear inflammation and I walked out of the clinic pain free. That was over three months ago. The medical insurance that I have allows three injections per year.

Good luck!

Ms.B - I have been praying for you every night, as I know you are in pain most of the time (and your face comes to me as I am praying). Hang tight, gurl fren - those prayers (and the doc's tendin') are gonna make you ALL BETTER - real soon!
