Ok, enough with the bionic man quotes but the last two years were pretty goofy for me since I was diagnosed with arthritis. I got used to being in some pain all the time and alot of pain most of the time. I was willing to deal with it as long as I could, but when we went through the marriage dymamics class at church I made a commitment to Tracy that I would at least go get it checked out again to see what type or prognosis I had. Well the bad news was that I had it in both hips and it wasn't going to get any better. My Dr said that the indicators to being at a point I needed to seriously consider the hip replacement were a burning sensation and being awoken at night fromt the pain of which I had both of these. So I went in in April and made the decision shortly after that to have the surgery then proceeded to cook chicken for Nelson's and was feeling pretty good (eating tylenol and Excedrin like candy) so I considered putting off the surgery till after Thanksgiving. Then I did a corporate and was in total pain all day with no relief from tylenol plus I had a 90 min drive home that was torture so I didn't change my mind afterall.
stay tuned.
Who freaking cares?
