Hi @Former-Member 

I am in a strange place - had three ultrasound guided injections of local anaesthetic and steroid into glute tendons and bursa around hip ... I nearly fainted during them and was pain free after but difficult to walk due to anaesthetic.. now it’s worn off I was nearly in tears and out of breath going up stairs to bed tonight with terrible 9/10 pain going upstairs but mild pain only on flat walking  .. laying in spare bed now with two of my cats asleep  on me and myself in pain 5/10 pain full ache ...dr said it may flare up before it gets better - she has given me pain chart to fill in at several intervals over next few days lol - lol because my life is full of charts lately ... I just did the 11.15 entry ... not sure what tomorrow will bring ... but the rain on the tin roof sounds beautiful ... as does my cat purring on my chest ... I’m anxious re tomorrow and esp anxious re using stairs again to go to kitchen tomorrow morning
