~Sore Hip~

My right hip is giving me fits. It hurts so bad I
can hardly stand it.. It doesn't matter which way
I sit or lay, it hurts.. I wish I could stand, that
would take some of the pressure off of it. Or
even a pool I think would work.. Something has
got to, just to give me some relief.. I had thought
maybe it might be time for me to get a new cushion
but this one seems still firm. I just have NO idea
what could be causing this pain... It can stop any
time it wants to.. I bet I was more awake last night
than asleep.. I hate when I have a restless night...

Today, after not sleeping very well and this hip
still hurting Ive not felt worth a crap and I have
NO energy to do anything.. I'm tired from no
sleep but this hip as of now, its almost noon, it
has NOT stopped aching... I don't keep any
kind of pain pills here, I do have my aspirin I
take 1 a day, I don't think it would do much to
help this hip pain... I think what might help is
to get out of this chair and that's what I'm
gonna do after I have lunch and take my pill.
Maybe I am staying in this chair too long..


After I close down this computer I go into
my bedroom and watch TV in there.. But I
stay in my chair until about 7 or so or unless
I start to doze off then I get onto my bed..
I know once I get on the bed I wont be able
to watch a lot because I KNOW I will fall
asleep.. Theres a button on my clicker and I
hit that and I'm out for a few hours at least.
I have woken up at 2 or 3 and had to shut
my TV off, but I do hate when I do that, I
started to shut if off after the first doze
off :-) NOW ! :-) But that could be the cause
of this hip.. I am in this chair too long.. Worth
a try if I can get this to stop...

Its a pretty nice day, up in the 50's BUT the
weatherman says SNOW possibly by Wednesday.
If it has to snow I hope its not much since the
kids will be travelling that day... Seems to always
snow on the holidays.. :-) Time for lunch and to
post this.. This GORGEOUS WEEBLE needs to
get OFF her GORGEOUS BUTT :-) BUT... "I
SHall Return!" :-)


Y'all have a good one now, Y'hear? luv ya and thanks!
Always, Lois ****


"God Bless You" is my prayer today,
I'm honored to call you Friend.
I pray the Lord will keep you safe,
Until I write again...

    Hi, Honey,
    You really should keep some pain relief to hand for times like this. We have Co-codamol, which is good but you need to take a laxative at the same time, as it binds you up something rotten!! Better is Paracetamol. You have to be careful not to exceed the stated dose with all these things. Too much Aspirin is NOT good for the stomach. I really hope you can find some relief for this pain. Constant, nagging pain is very tiring itself, without the lack of sleep.
    Take care, Honey,
    Luv Ya,
    Raife

    I think you need to see the dr re the hip pain - perhaps an MRI or a blood work up to see if it is staph. It is a shame that you cannot take a magic pill and pooof the pain is gone.

    I agree.. it would be nice to have 1 day pain free.. THAT would be a treat!

    Hiya Momar,
