SPD or what else?..........

Well, I have been to see yet another GP who once again says I do not have SPD.....she said I would only have pain in my pubic bone area...................ok well I can live with the fact I don't have it, but why the hell am I struggling to:


Go up the stairs individually, rather than having both feet on one stair before starting the next one............

Sitting on most things barr my sofa...... which is becoming uncomfortable now..........

Turning over in bed, and the bottom of my spine aches.......and my pelvic bone area seems to throb & is so uncomfortable.

Walking can be ok, but if playing up, it can be painful. I came to a dead stop Saturday in a shop, I didn't know how I was going to walk out of there, it was so painful......

Walking up slopes.......

Getting dressed (stepping into things).........



I have pain in: (it is not constantly bad, but constantly there, some days are worse than others)

My pubic bone (on left side of middle)
Groin (left side)
The very Bottom of my spine (left side)
My hip at times (left side mainly, but the odd flinch on the right)
It hurts when I get dressed and have to stand on one foot (left one)

The GP said, that it may be pregnancy related, it may not be?!?! I mean what the hell does that mean? That don't help me!! She has given me some codiene (very mild) to try to help with the pain so I can sleep solidly, but I don't want to take it as I am on anti sickness tablets too as well as another medication She said about me going for physio.....but she didn't book it there and then, she said to see my own GP and see what she says..........well I am not seeing her til the 16th Oct, that was the earliest they could do!

So where does that leave me.........all I want to do is be pain free!!

I am fed up with getting on GPs couches and having them prod me here there and everywhere, and tell me it's 'groin strain' or 'it might be pregnancy related, it might not' I could have told them that!!

Does anyone have any ideas?!?!? Anything at all? As I am just so fed up with it all, I am getting to the point of just getting on with it and forgetting the GPs, but it is getting worse and I am at a loss as to what to do

Thanks for reading girls! And sorry for ranting xx

 

Awwwwwwwww Thank you babe!!

Good news is I am not down about it, but it does drive me nuts when it plays up when I have to do things

But hey ho!! :wink:

Thanks again babe!

 

Hi babe, thanks for that..........

I had ciatic last time near the end, so I know it isn't that. But I have had this for 9 weeks now, the baby wouldnt have been heavy enough to affect me.....so I am not convinced it is nerve related, it feels diffrerent and one of the problems I have, is I can't describle it Only say that it is like toothache in my hip......not that that helps

Oh well, I will just plod on and hope it doesn't get much worse!

Thanks again babe xx

 

Thanks babe

 

Ohh Bex, have you got the link?!

I think my sister and her cocky arse of a BF think I am putting it on, but what do I care......I know how I bloody feel, just coz she has sailed thru her pregnancy, lucky her!!!!

Paul has to help me off the floor, and sometimes to turn over in bed as it can be so painful!! It is horrible isn't it?

Oh well, we will have to have a rant together babe xx

 

Awwwwwww bloody people!! Would be a different story if it was them who was going thru it........I am very lucky with Paul he is very understanding and see's what I go thru and does everything to help.

Thanks for the link babe! xx

 

Hi hun,

Ohhhhhh poor you!!

Thanks for the advise!!

I am seeing MY GP on the 16th of this month, she is good and I have faith in her..........I am going to see her as the Emergency GP I saw in the top post, said she didn't have time to refer me, but I will be going to physio, hopefully they will be more helpful?!

Can I ask......How do they exactly diagnose SPD?!? I have been proded and poked and asked to twist and bend etc.......

Oh well, all I can do it see what happens

But Thanks again hun xx

 

Hi babe hun it is just one of those things

I don't believe I am allowed to use a tens machine until 37 weeks now Otherwise I think it would definately be a help.......but sods law eh?

Cheers babe xx
