For those of you who didn't have a chance to read my last post on my other blog I will give somewhat of a quick overview of whats been going on with me. I should say that I am falling apart. Since I have turned 30 I have had medical issues that I have had to go through. For one is my throat. They believe that I have an acid reflux issue that causes my throat to tighten up that cause me to have a hard time eating and such. I have been in to the hospital to have a procedure done to dialate it to open it up so that I am able to have food and liquids go down with no issues. I have had this done 3 times and I have an appointment with my doctor next week to discuss what my other options are. We soon shall see I hope that they will be able to do something to fix the issue. And the other issue that I have had is lately I have had problems with my knees... I can't sit or stand for long periods of time without my knees hurting. So I went in to a knee specialist and he was able to do some x-rays and he came to the conclusion that I have whats called " Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome ."
I found this picture online......
My patella's are facing outward from what I understand with seeing my x-rays and it puts alot of strain on the knee. So when I sit or stand for long periods of time it causes pain. I am sure I will learn more about it as I go to therapy and learn a few excersizes to strengthen and help somewhat relieve some pain or pressure whichever you would like to call it. And I also did recieve some pain meds to help when needed as well...See what I mean when I say I am falling apart... I am sure it will all get fixed and I will be somewhat of a regular person without issues.... Wait I shouldn't say that becasue I always have some kind of issues... LOL!!
Thanks for stopping by.... Have a good day!
