I say these things not for any sympathy, good humour is better for me.
I say them because if just one spark of what I type resonates enough to encourage a member to get his PSA checked then it is worth it. It was a bad night in hospital last night, the morphine seems to wear off more quickly, the pain was horrendous, I soiled myself, even through the pain, I knew how depreciating it was. I had subk to a new low, others on the ward I had woken with my cries of anguish knew what had happened. They had maybe done the same. The oh so calm nurses treating me so kindly as they cleaned me up and changed the bed, the smell must have been awful. Please do everything you can to stop this happening to you. I have a consultation with a spine specialist this morning to see if any surgery will help. I'm no hero, the pain beat me hands down, I begged it to stop. I write for no sympathy or even acknowledgement just to explain what happens, if you don't mind, I will carry on as things happen. |

Reading this has my eyes welling up. If I could take on any of your pain I'd gladly do it but not at all to the brave degree you have. It's amazing how quickly our vanity fades when faced w/ circumstances like this. Hoping those wonderful thoughtful nurses & doctors provide you w/ the relief & care you so richly deserve. dP

I've thought about sending you a PM, but I'm certain you're too busy with treatments to respond. Please continue to post as long as you feel up to it. I'm really at a loss for words at this moment. As an aside, I've had the PSA along with a colonoscopy a few months ago with clear results. |
