I hate going to the doctor.  He's a nice guy and all, but it seems like every time I see him, his immediate reaction is: "Here, Mimi, take these pills." 

Well, I expected it.  My hands have been bothering me for a while.  I use my hands a lot, and it's becoming increasingly painful to do almost everything.  So I sucked it up and went to see the doctor today. 

As expected, it's osteoarthritis with a touch of tendonitis thrown in for good measure.  Prescription anti-inflammatories, and if they don't help, I get to see a hand specialist so he can give me a shot of cortisone in the palm of my hand.  Here's hoping the pills work.

Hmph.  Pretty soon I'll have to invest in one of those little pill reminders.  Next step the senior citizens' center.

Gee maybe I can start an Erotica Writers' Group...

    I hear ya, Mimi. I hate taking pills almost as much as I hate trying to remember why I have to take the damned things in the first place.

    Well Mimi, I think they call the Golden Years that because you give all the
    gold you saved to the doctors and the medicine man.
     
    The alternative to getting old is even more bleak though. Get out those
    dirty books and practice up for the Senior Center........haha
    Good luck to you Mimi, you have a great sense of humor in your favor, don't
    ever loose that.

    Hate to say it...but it works... my grandmother began smoking pot...eases the pain, and makes her smile more often.  Her girlfriend (grandma is 73 friend 70) those two gal's have a grand time together and she feels less pain, does more because of that and goes on with life...now she don't need as many pills (she lives in California).

Did anyone here have experience with using trigger points for pain relief?...
