I'm finally going to get some help with this more than pesky back pain. Next Tuesday at 2PM I am getting a "Vertebral Augmentation".....Which is, essentially, an injection of bone cement into the fractured bone which will stabilize the bone and thus not ache!! Hooray!!! I evidently have Osteoporosis - exacerbated by the many falls I have taken this year. I didn't even know that!! I figured
when I fell down and didn't break anything I didn't need to be
concerned.. well..evidently I did break something...my back! Fortunately I will be put out during the procedure....therefore I don't dread it as much as I would otherwise. I'll also come home the same day...which will make me happy...
I have been going to physical therapy because my legs are getting weak...I have been pretty good about doing my exercises at home this time...I would think that walking Fritz three times a day would strengthen the legs...but evidently not...
Not much other news this time....Surely do enjoy visits with my great grand babies.....they are both so sweet!
Take care!
