I received a call from my doc's office telling me I would be unable to have my surgery until at least January. You see, I am in 4th month of the 3-6 month window for surgery, and hadn't heard anything. So I decided to call a couple him days ago to see when I would go under the knife.
I suppose its better for surgery to happen after Christmas rather than before, as I am told recovery will take a bit of time. Then again, perhaps no time is a good time. Nah, not true. It will be nice to move on from 3+ years of dealing with this bloody plain. Even as I lay in bed writing this, its there. Oh, and as I write this, I know there are those of you out there whose stories of life with arthritis would humble my experience.
There's is much to say, and I will over the next few days and weeks. How I came to get this. Where its located on my body. How it has impacted my lifestyle. My options to deal with this pain. My daily ins and outs of dealing and living with this crazy disease. If I can, I want to share for others to learn from.
I look forward to hopefully hearing from some of you as well.
