Ahhhhh....nerve blockers......
So, pain during the weekend was bit better and Monday I saw the doctor that did my ablation procedure. He was like, "You had some excitement on Friday. Why didn't you page me?" I explained that my phone was dead and I had also lost his pager number. He gave it to me again. I said also, "You know you were off on Friday." I do not know why I say these things. These are futile arguments when you deal with Docs that are so committed to their patients. I got the look. It said, "I told you you can page me whenever you need to, so cut it." Remember, it was just a look, but I still said, "Okay, okay, I am sorry. You are in my special doctor location in my wallet now. I will page you." He responded with, "You did the right thing to come in." I nod. He examined me and said, "Well, I am not surprised at this, but I am a little confused on why it did not happen immediately after the procedure." He went on to tell me how fast nerves heal (they don't), what I can expect, and what we can do for pain management. "There is this drug that is a nerve blocker. It will help with the pain, but the numbness will be there for a while. It has been very successful with Herpes patients." I was fine until Herpes. I look at him like, "Am I supposed to be able to relate to that, and how do you know that?!?!?" WHATEVER. They work and I am back in the saddle. So much so, I delivered 1300 products yesterday for the fundraiser. Don't worry I am resting today with my Herpes medicine. Happy Wednesday! Ang
