Well.....here I go again.
While going over my MRI, my pain doctor(he's one of the rare GOOD docs that do care) found that I have an aneurism in one of my renal arteries.
So now I have to get set up for tests to figure out what can be done.
I'm under charity care, and the pain doc isn't part of it, he's on the case through my lawyer from when I got hit by a car.
So had he not seen it, I wouldn't have known about it.
So I don't know what will be next. Surgery, or what.
I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired.
I can't help but wonder if the bad pain I have in my back is because of that.
It's right in the area where the car hit me.
P.S. For those that don't know, it's the artery that goes to my kidney.

Stay strong, Cheesey. When life knocks you down, just keep getting right back up.

dadgummit Cheesey, stop getting all these boo boos.

Seriously, I hope they can take care of this without surgery. Just some extra bran flakes or something.

---

Thanks Porky and Wayne.
It gets very frustrating. I try so hard, and just when I think it might get better.....WHAM.
Such is life, I guess.

Hello Cheesey,
Please try to be strong and don't let the stress make it worse. You have friends here that will support you.
Your job is to get well as soon as you can. Lite a fire under the Dr.'s asses if you have to. Get the best care you can as quickly as possible. Trust in the Lord and he will be by your side. If you need help, there may be somebody from this forum close enough by to help. Don't be afraid to ask for help, many hearts are larger than they appear to be.

Get well soon.
Smokey

I'm sorry to hear that Cheesey, but you have proven over and over to be one tough bird.
I hope and pray that you will overcome this issue with flying colors.
Best wishes to you!

Sorry to hear this, Alan.

Remember that you are strong enough to handle this, too. God is with you and he wouldn't have you deal with it if you weren't. He must want something from someone else, and he can only get it if you, one of his strong ones, steps up to the plate again.

In the meantime, my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Thank you, guys.
I know it says God won't give you more then you can handle.....obviously He thinks I can handle more then I think I can handle.
I know everything happens for a reason.
I have been fighting for so long, im just so tired.
I haven't lost faith in God though .
It does help knowing my "family" is here to offer support. It really does help.
So, thank you again.

Be a stud about the whole damn thing, Alan. Might as well, because it will not change if you are not.

I wish you good health.

True, Dfoster.
I keep getting knocked down, but I haven't stayed down.
It makes me laugh. I keep saying...."Well, whats next?"
It actually is funny.
It's like climbing one mountain, and when you get to the top, there's another bigger mountain in front of you.
