Hi Everyone, This is a note to let you know that my travel is severely restricted. The good news is that what I have is a bone spur on my knee joint, the bad news is I don't get to see the specialist until Dec 4th. The doc and I have tried all sorts of medication to decrease the pain but it takes me around 3 minutes to go the 20 steps from the computer to my bed. This means my research is restricted to the home and when I can wheedle my husband into taking me out. (Grin)I may have to get my 19yo her Ohio Drivers license so she can cart me around. Hmmm...that sounds dangerous to my mental health! The doc is going to start me on some really strong narcotics for the pain and I may be in and out for a few days. Course you never know as I took two Darvocet last night and manage a sum total of 6 hours sleep. I have been averaging about 3hrs a night. I am just warning you all that I am alright but might disappear for long periods at a time. Maggie !^NavFont02F02F70007NGHHIF87769
