Hi 3986,
Congrats on finally getting the appt at Mayo.
Sounds like your bones are stronger than mine. At the recommendation of my endocrinologist, I have been doing daily injections of generic Forteo for over an year now.
My surgery is mid-may at Mayo Rochester.
Good luck to you and May we both fine relief soon.🙏

Hi,

Am hoping that my surgery can go a head in 6/7 months. I need to be weaned off my morphine pain pump first he said because there have been issues with infections with the pain pumps. And then my bones. It’s just that the pain level has become to much. I continue with the good thoughts, guides imagery, breathing and several other ways to help deal with the mind. But.. I sure it will be out several months, but I can hope/pray. Take care, thoughts and prayers to you also
