Peggy will be undergoing an enhanced CT scan tody. She's been having severe back problems for many years, and now, a spot has been found in one of her lungs.

She's been on major pain meds off and on, and steroids as well. Hopefully, the CT scan will help determine what's been causing her back pain, and that the spot is nothing serious.

So if she seems a little snippy lately (Gypsy runs and hides in corner):eek:, this might explain why, lol!:p

Good luck, today, Peggy! Please update us when you know something! (Gypsy will be waiting with the big stick to prod Peggy into cluing us in!):D

ANN just you wait!!!!!!

WB actually these debates keep my mind OFF of my problems ... I know I need to worry about them but there is NOTHING I can do sitting here waiting to find out what is up :(

I tend to be afairly private person when I am not feeling well.. I appreciate the thoughts and all that but Ann you just wait :eek:

My Prayers are up for you Peggy. Do you have someong to drive you to your scan appt. and back home so if they need to give you a little dose of a sedative to keep you relaxed they can? They can't if you drive yourself ... a hard lesson I learned.

My mother is taking me since I am already pretty dopey. I am allergic to the dye they use for contrast... so I am on all kinds of stuff to PREVENT a reaction any way on top of pain meds for my back and ibuprofen

I hate when they treat sympthoms instead of finding the problem...

That's good that your Mother is taking you and hopefully you will be relaxed during the scan. The CT Scan is a good thing ... it is looking for the problem so keep reminding yourself of that.

isn't there something about using meds in porportion to weight........ I DIDN'T SAY THAT :innocent:

I bet it's tempting but you better not-who knows how it will affect you. I have never understood how horse tranquilizer turns into "speed" (generally speaking, for truckers...)...

I am beggining to wonder if the meds aren't causing me to have kidney problem this back pain is "different" then my "normal"back pain ... and when I take AVO" it goes away for a day then comes back with a vengence... hmmmmm

What's AVO, PeggySue? Also, bute does human livers in, so mitts off.

Sure hope you start to feel better soon Peggy Sue. I sure do know what you mean about laying on those hard CT scan tables, when I had a herniated disk in my back it was torture to lay there (and try not to move) on that thing. I found that pain meds didn't help my pain either, sometimes good old ibuprofen helped the pain better, altho the pain meds did improve my mood, LOL.
