Things got better for me this evening. We had a pizza party which was fun. Then I came back here and played with Julio a little. He kept tickling me (which I'll admit isn't hard to do.) Then I took a bath and cut myself shaving but luckily I'm not bleeding. It doesn't really hurt bad to cut yourself either if you don't bleed. Maybe it's the whole thing about how the greater the stimulus, the less you sense an increase? Since my foot hurts, it takes more pain other places for me to care? Either way, I'm feeling better and not so fragile. Tomorrow is my appointment with the pain clinic for an injection. Please pray that it does what it needs to and that I make the right decision about whether to ask for Lidoderm patches since the sample's out. Hugs! Nickie
