Well we just got home from the ER, they wanted to keep him overnight, but he wouldn't stay.
Jon, my husband has been complaining of shoulder pain for a good 3 months, you know he is the type, never goes to the Dr. unless it is so painful he can't stand it, well he finally hit that point.......He has a lump in his shoulder that is alot bigger than the other side. After getting IV morphine, and that not helping the pain, they gave him 2 other drugs, can't remember off hand, but one was more for bone and muscle relaxer........well then x-rays where taken and there is fluid build up in that shoulder, they Dr. said it does not look good, and wanted to keep him for pain management.........he wouldn't stay, he hates hospitals. ANyway we came home with some pain killers, and he has to return in the morning for a Bone scan. They left his IV in for the dye injection tomorrow and then we are suppose to see the DR. right after then scan.
It scared me cause he also mentioned wanting to rule out bone cancer.....
I hate that C word with a passion...............I am not sure if most of you know but my daughter who will be 8 on Friday is in her 6th year of remission from having had Cancer.
She just had scans done on Monday and her CT scan came out great....she also had to have her hearing checked again, and sadly has lost more hearing in her left ear(she has hearing aids already in both ears)
Due to the high doses of chemo used in her treatments, she is still having lasting effects.
So if you have a chance to say a little prayer that whatever is causing his pain is treatable.........My husband is everything to me, and to our daughter, and I worry so much about him...........HE never complains unless it really is bad, so I know he is hurting. :no:
Thanks guys.....
