I drove myself to the surgeon yesterday and getting in and out of the car and walking left me in pain.
I can't get out of my chair without help and I was doing so much better.
Also please pray that I don't have any drug interactions
Thanks

I just got up by myself and walked a short distance with the walker.
Your prayers are working already.
I pray that I get even better tomorrow

Thanks@Verily

Eliquis gave me shortness of breath. I could not even walk to mailbox. Xarelto which also is expensive worked for me. When I read your post in early January I saw the possibility of Eliquis being the problem. Blessings.

Well I am short of breath because I have a blood clot in my lungs.
If Eliquis makes it worse I need to find something else

I can not give medical advise as blood thinners can be dangerous. I thought I would share with you what did not work for me and what did. When I called about the shortness of breath they put me on Xarelto.

I’ve been able to get up about every hour today. Sometimes it takes two or three tries

Add my name to the list of people who have prayed for you, brother. I feel your pain!

Actually, looking at the date of this prayer request: there's a good chance things have worked out well already?

Thank you for your prayers. I'm doing better getting out of the chair but I still have a long way to go. Maybe the vascular surgeon can help me, I see him Wednesday

I went to a vascular surgeon yesterday. I have cellulitis and lymphedema. I have to go back for an ultrasound next week.
I’m in a lot of pain walking with the walker and I have come down with something, it may be flu

No improvement. I’m taking an antibiotic for the cellulitis but it’s worse, it’s leaking. I had to reschedule a few appointments because no one was available to take me. I can’t get in or out of a car by myself anymore. Someone has to lift my left leg

Hey Randy, I'm so sorry to hear about your health problems. Arthritis and nerve pain are really hard to deal with. It's key to keep trying with treatments and to look after yourself. The shots might help, and a new job sounds like a good chance. I'm cheering for your health to get better! Keep in mind, the help of family and friends and prayer can make you strong when times are hard. I think all will turn out fine, and you'll be able to do your new job with no pain. Hold on tight! :blush:

I went to a lymphedema clinic yesterday and I go to the vascular surgeon today. My wife takes me but I'm going to try lifting my leg with exercise bands to get in the car.
I'm going to have to get myself to appointments
