Human purrs

*sigh* I hate doing this. It feels selfish. Unfortunately, my phantom
pain is not a cyst and remains a mystery. THAT makes me really nervous.
So far it's not getting better. I don't know yet where we go from here,
but since it remains a mystery that makes me much more worried about
it. I don't care for mysterious pain; seems more like all those stories
you hear. So any spare purrs would be welcome.

It is not selfish at all, Karen!
We are sending lots and lots of purrs and best wishes that whatever it
is will go away easily and quickly,

Yes, "mysterious pain" can cause the most concerns. The unknown is always
more worrisome. What is your next step? What does your doctor advise?
Certainly, I think you should see a specialist at this time -- but I also
recognize that the next big question is, "what *kind* of specialist?"

Now, that said, please try to remain calm (much easier said than done).
Many of these mystery pains turn out to be something very minor that are
cured simply by time -- and by relaxation, if that is at all possible. In
other words, take care of yourself and don't undertake any more stressful
activities than is absolutely necessary.

Karen...

Well, I am seeing a specialist. I'm to call Monday. Let's just hope it
goes away by then. I have been getting massages because I am all
screwed up in the back and neck (tension). But have a lot of work to do
on that yet. Here's hoping.

W. Leong...

I found massages to be very helpful for muscles aches and pain.
But you have to keep at it. Hope the specialist can help you pinpoint
the cause of your problem and give you proper treatment.

Marina...

Of course, Karen, take as many as you need. Caliban sends one of his
little kisses too (he's a very kissy boy; last night I had my sister and
our mother over for dinner, and he welcomed them both with lots of
kisses, the litle charmer). I hope it turns out to be nothing at all,
and the pain goes away by itself. The worst part is not knowing. BTDT.

Not a'tall. Selfish? Who would look after your masters? Lots of
purrs on the way.

I don't remember reading about the pain and cannot find anything about it
on the computer. I had such a pain that would come and go in the
abdomen. I was examined for everything from appendix, gall bladder,
ulcers, repeatedly over the years. Finally at age 47 it became acute and
fortunately I got to the right doctor -- it was a twisted bowel that
finally got blocked. He undid the twist and the pain has never returned.
I also had a neighbor who had a persistent pain on the left side. Turned
out her appendix was on the left side.

I hope you can find the right doctor to solve the problem. Best wishes.

Rumbly purrs that the mystery is solved and that treatment and relief is
easily obtained.

meee...

Purrs karen that you will find out it is nothing bad....((((karen)))))

Wayne Mitchell...

Ugh! Your worry is understandable, and you're very much
entitled to ask for purrs. We'd be unhappy if you didn't.
Purrs that you find out what causes it and can make it go away,
or failing that, that it just goes away.

W. Leong...

Have you tried a pain clinic? I've never been to one but know of people who
went there
and got treated successfully. Purrs going out to you to get this mystery
resolved.

Monique Y. Mudama...

Purrs that you find out what it is and that it's easily treatable.
