Found you looking under ...First time corresponding. Found you looking under leg and hip pain this morning. <BR/>Yes, I'm a cancer "survivor" also. Prostate. Treated in 2004 with EBRT. Follow ups every 6 months. <BR/>Also had TIA and triple by-pass surgery in 2004. Had O/A for years.So bad, it qualified me for SSD in 2000. <BR/>Trying to lose weight and walk. Got better B4 it got what it is now. I take control substance for the pain on a daily basis.I was taking vioxx b4 the cardio events for over 2 years. Various therapies and chiropractic. <BR/>Used to donate my type O on a schedule until hypertension and anemia limited me from doing so B4 cancer.Now, I can't of course. <BR/>Still do meals on wheels when I can. <BR/>Trying to find what to do for pain as I walk over 2.5 miles a day. Haven't been now for a week or so. Use treadmill, stationary bike and weights but it's tough usually. <BR/>65 now. Wife has 1 more day & retires. Has worse cardio than I but no cnacer. Had 5 by-pass 2001 and needs valve job- just isn't ready for it yet. <BR/>Broke now. Chapter 7 in 2005, lost home of 22 years 2006. The life threateners are expensive--with good insurance! Better timing would have helped. Dying would have also. <BR/>Getting "into" myself a bit here. Sorry. Just that working 12 hours a day 6-7 days a week didn't do it for me. <BR/>Got to find something that helps with pain besides narcotics or death. Any ideas?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10577926.post-90550183435486161332007-05-15T16:33:00.000-05:002007-05-15T16:33:00.000-05:00David,Theresa...what a beautiful name.
