Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / March 2006Human purrs
*sigh* I hate doing this. It feels selfish. Unfortunately, my phantom pain is not a cyst and remains a mystery. THAT makes me really nervous. So far it's not getting better. I don't know yet where we go from here, but since it remains a mystery that makes me much more worried about it. I don't care for mysterious pain; seems more like all those stories you hear. So any spare purrs would be welcome. > *sigh* I hate doing this. It feels selfish. Unfortunately, my phantom pain > is not a cyst and remains a mystery. THAT makes me really nervous.

The unknown is always more worrisome. What is your next step? What does your doctor advise? Certainly, I think you should see a specialist at this time -- but I also recognize that the next big question is, "what *kind* of specialist?" Now, that said, please try to remain calm (much easier said than done). Many of these mystery pains turn out to be something very minor that are cured simply by time -- and by relaxation, if that is at all possible. In other words, take care of yourself and don't undertake any more stressful activities than is absolutely necessary. MaryL >> *sigh* I hate doing this. It feels selfish.

Let's just hope it goes away by then. I have been getting massages because I am all screwed up in the back and neck (tension). But have a lot of work to do on that yet. Here's hoping. >>> *sigh* I hate doing this. It feels selfish. Unfortunately, my phantom >>> pain is not a cyst and remains a mystery. THAT makes me really nervous.

You might also want to ask the doctor about a pain management specialist. My mother suffered from the most excruciating pain. In her case, it was caused by years of back problems (and 3 separate spinal surgeries), followed by a slipped disk and pinched nerves. She was also 85 year old! I took her to a wide variety of doctors, and they would show me X-Rays that clearly showed spinal damage. At her age and condition, surgery would have been impossible. Finally, someone recommended a pain management specialist, and it was like a miracle. He prescribed a patch that enabled her to have a constant -- but low level -- dosage of pain medication. Your case is far different, of course, and it is very important for you to get a diagnosis of the *cause* of your pain. Still, it might be worth asking about this type of consultation while you locate and deal with the underlying problem. MaryL >>> *sigh* I hate doing this. It feels selfish.

Hope the specialist can help you pinpoint the cause of your problem and give you proper treatment. Winnie > *sigh* I hate doing this. It feels selfish.

I've never been to one but know of people who went there and got treated successfully. Purrs going out to you to get this mystery resolved. Winnie > *sigh* I hate doing this. It feels selfish.

So any spare purrs would be welcome. I don't remember reading about the pain and cannot find anything about it on the computer. I had such a pain that would come and go in the abdomen. I was examined for everything from appendix, gall bladder, ulcers, repeatedly over the years. Finally at age 47 it became acute and fortunately I got to the right doctor -- it was a twisted bowel that finally got blocked. He undid the twist and the pain has never returned. I also had a neighbor who had a persistent pain on the left side. Turned out her appendix was on the left side. I hope you can find the right doctor to solve the problem. Best wishes.

So any spare purrs would be welcome. Ugh! Your worry is understandable, and you're very much entitled to ask for purrs. We'd be unhappy if you didn't. Purrs that you find out what causes it and can make it go away, or failing that, that it just goes away. SignatureWayne, with special purrformances by Will and Heidi > *sigh* I hate doing this.

So any spare purrs would be welcome. Of course, Karen, take as many as you need. Caliban sends one of his little kisses too (he's a very kissy boy; last night I had my sister and our mother over for dinner, and he welcomed them both with lots of kisses, the litle charmer). I hope it turns out to be nothing at all, and the pain goes away by itself. The worst part is not knowing. BTDT. SignatureMarina, Miranda and Caliban.
