As always, you have posted the perfect words
with your perfect image. I'm not crazy about
the coincidences, either, LOL (ouch)!
But love is the greatest healer, as our
friend "~ anon ~ " above so
alludes. Your heartfelt message expresses the
frustrations of dealing with traditional
western medicine......
Hang in there, dear. You have lots of
friends here sending the best medicine your
way.

Prayers, love, hope and SYMPATHY sent your
way... THERE IS NOTHING WRONG with needing,
wanting, asking FOR sympathy
and I Quote:.
Definition: [n] an inclination to
support or be loyal to or to agree with an
opinion; "his sympathies were always
with the underdog"; "I knew I could
count on his understanding"
[n] sharing the feelings of others
(especially feelings of sorrow or anguish)
[n] a relation of affinity or harmony
between people; whatever affects one
correspondingly affects the other; "the
two of them were in close sympathy"
Synonyms: fellow feeling, understanding
I especially like that last one:
a relation of affinity or harmony between
people; whatever affects one correspondingly
affects the other;
AND SO dear dear friend.... for the
abusive and rude remark of your Former
practicioner...and the unreasonable time it
is taking for you to get relief and an
answer........
I say..... POOP ON THEM!!!!
If you will email me your phone number and a
time of day that you are laying down and can
talk to me... I will call you...
pjsixft@msn.com
SO COME ON EVERYONE>>>>>>
lets give her LOTS OF SYMPATHY.... it IS what
she needs!!!!!!!!

Dear Antoinette, I am holding you up in my
prayers and sending positive thoughts your
way. I am inspired by your work here and the
positive results it has apparently already
done....and despite cringing at your pain, I
couldn't help but smile at that last quote -
you are something else, my friend! Logic in
this? Not always.....sometimes there are no
answers to the "whys" But I am
reminded of a few lines from a song I
recently listened to.......
The sun is gonna shine tomorrow
The good and the bad both feel the rain
Faith, hope and love outlive our sorrow
Hang in there Antoinette .... many many
prayers are ascending in your behalf and many
are holding you in their thoughts. Blessings
on you, always.

Antoinette, I am so sorry to hear your bad

and reassurance from your doctor. I hope

support you. Take care, keep healing, and
all good karma from here.

Dearest Antoinette sistah,
Just got back home and got online! This is
such a creative X-ray image and it came out
from your burning pain like a phoenix
dancing! The colorful stripes reminds me of a
traditional Chinese dance in which the
dancers use lots of long colorful stripes to
dance (without tripping over them!). I
believe you will be dance again without any
pain! No worry about commenting! Wish you a
quick recovery!! BIG BIG HUGS from me &
sj! MUAH!!!!!

Dearest Friends:
Thanks sooooooo much for your sincere care
and best wishes....I am typing this standing
up . . . went to an orthopedic doctor
today.....99.9% sure it's a herniated
disk...am trying to avoid an mri.....back
when I can sit again....

Oh, just got back up on line after my
computer problems shut everything down for
three days...I saw your beautiful X-ray just
now and was looking forward to reading your
words....but ouch, ouch, ouch... so sorry to
hear about your present condition and all the
pain you are in. I can only offer my healing
prayers and all the healing thoughts I know
and send them every day by magic carpet. Is
it possible for you to see a chiropractor, or
a Chinese acupuncturist for your pain? I have
had wonderful results with both. Mri does
not hurt and there is no radiation, but the
sound is rather disturbing. A good way to
know though exactly what is wrong.
I wish with all my might for the pain to
subside...
Lots of love to you.

Dearest Antionette.. I am so sorry that you
are unwell and still in pain :( I am deeply
saddened that your cries for help have fallen
on ears that just won't hear :( They 'may'
be the doctors - the ones who have done the
training and schooling.. but no one.. and I
mean no one, knows your own body like you do.
Be strong and keep persisting until someone
sits up and listens to you love. Someone will
hear you.. and help you!
I understand what you're going through and
I care. Chronic pain can be so debilitating.
:( If you ever need anything at all.. I am
just an email away.. all the best,
Mel

Oh, I am so sorry to hear this. Your

is so hard when to know what is
"enough" in exercise. I hope you
can find just the right treatment. :-(

Dearest Friends: I WISH I could give a
better report. Your precious, caring, sincere
friendships mean more to me than anything on
earth. I'm still in horrible pain and
standing as I write this. They say this
healing process takes time. I'm searching
for the *lesson* in all of this. I know
*patience* and appreciation for my *virtual*
friends head my list. LOVE you all. Thanks
for continuing to visit. When you see me on
your streams, you'll know I'm able to sit
again.

My word of advice (that you didn't ask for
but I am going to give anyway)....
DON"T avoid the MRI.... NEED THAT (and
if you go to a neurologist .... who you NEED
TO SEE) they will do one to rule out
herniation into the chord... (SPINAL
CHORD)..... which may need surgery to prevent
permenant pain and damage.
PLEASE Please get a referral to a
NEUROLOGIST... dear dear friend!!!

Thanks to I went and did it....had the MRI this
morning at 8:00, followed by a consultation
with a physical therapist.
Diagnois:
Left and right herniated disks. Treating
this with bed rest, minimal exercise and,
unfortunately, not sitting nor flickring in
any great length. I'll try to post another
image in a day or two.....meanwhile, thanks
from the bottom of my heart for everyone's
support, prayers, and even being with me in
spirit while in the "tube" . . .
there was enough room for all of us, and all
the fear I had around the
"claustropobic" issues were nil . .
. thanks to the help of a little xanax,
earplugs and ear cushions! I actually felt
like I was an early caveman listening to
fellow musicians trying their
"clubs" at rock music! Again, my
deepest love to all. I'll write when I
can....still standing to type.

hopefully is correct.
You are still in our thoughts. Take care.

Dear Antoinette, so sorry to hear of your
troubles. I'm just home from visiting family
down south, so have only just heard of your
pain and suffering. Do hope it is easing and
that some help is at hand. I truly believe in
the power of positive thinking, so with all
of us out here thinking healing, nurture,
gentle hugs, love and caring, there should be
some improvement really soon!!! My very best
wishes to you, love from Jeannie.

I was listening to NPR this morning and heard
a story of a Dr. who, as a little joke (NOT)
left a temporary tattoo on a woman's hip when
he perfomed surgery for her herniated disk. I
read all the comments from your friends to
make sure that wasn't YOU!!!
OMYGOODNESS, I'm sooooo sorry you are in
such pain. And please accept my apologies for
not seeing this sooner. I sure wish we all
weren't so far apart, so all your flickr
friends could take turns helping you. Or at
least one of us could loan you a laptop so
you could flickr in bed? ;)
Big gentle hugs for you, my friend. I hope
and pray your pain is lessening and your
spirits are rising.

Oh, Antoinette, I am sorry I haven't been
around to give you sympathy in your time of
pain. I have been undergoing the Big Sur
Wildfire since 6/21, and have not taken much
time for other. I hope you are feeling
better, and doing better, and feeling all the
love and hugs brought your way courtesy of
flickr!

Oh, Dear Kate . . . as much as I was
"burning" inside, you were also
caught up in such horrible fires. I cannot
imagine the scary days and nights you
endured. I've just spent some time on your
stream and am so moved and stunned by all
you've just been through. I can't imagine
how you stayed in your home. You are very
brave and have been so strong for your
friends out there. Blessings to you.

I have only just reached here so I'm hoping
that you are feeling better and that the pain
is easing and you are healing. I'm sending
hugs to you, I know what it's like, I've been
chronically ill and housebound myself for
eight years now.
