| Since the begin of September I have painful leg. Three weeks ago I went to the Dr. to ask what's going on. He told me it's a bursitis and gave me medications. The medications really helped.
A few days after I had taken the last pil, the pain came back. Tomorrow I have a new Dr's appointment. His assistant told me I might get a shot to solve this misery. I have a deep fear for shots. Will you pray that I get new medications that will stop this bursitis and I don't get a shot. |

| Stand strong sister, a shot is quick and is probably nothing compared to the pain of your bursitis (you can always keep your eyes closed and think of your favorite Disciple song). I will pray for you sister. Praying God will heal you from your affliction. _________________ "I used to be indecisive.......... Now I'm not sure."

| A cortisone shot can go a long way to taking care of this. It's worth the momentary trauma if it gets rid of the bursitis, or even if it reduces the inflammation for a long time. Bear in mind, they may need to drain fluid first, which I believe is done with needle as well.
Hang in there. |

| DH is right. They might have to drain the fluid first. I've had several cortisone shots in my feet prior to having them both operated on. They can do a lot for pain. Sure, you have to endure a little extra discomfort, but they work great on sore joints like your hips, knees, elbows, shoulders, etc. God will get you through this. _________________  I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. |

| The Dr. has given me mediations for two weeks. I need to rest more with the leg. When the pain isn't away after two weeks I have to come back for a cortisone shot. It's very painful last days. |
