Tuesday I was in the hospital for my final checkup. So I hoped. The neurosurgeon thinks my pain is not coming from another hernia but from a nerve. He thinks one of my nerves has been damaged, which basically means I will have to learn to live with this amount of pain every day. That sucks big time, since without painkillers I can’t even normally walk or sleep or do anything for that matter.
It can also be an inflamated nerve, since that can be tricky to heal and with some people it takes quite some time to be painfree again. Hopefully that’s what’s causing my pain. A couple of more weeks in pain is doable, I’m not sure about the “for the rest of my life” option.
Shit! I can make funny jokes nerve wrecking etc, but in the end it’s just (unimaginably for me) painful. I hope the surgeon is wrong about his first analysis and it will be over one day soon.
Thinking of you!
