I was so calm and peaceful for the four hours I couldn't feel my hip yesterday. When the medicine wore off it felt like I was being crushed under an enormous weight. I don't any other way to describe it. It was overwhelming. First I cried because it was overwhelming for the pain to be gone and then I cried because it was overwhelming when it returned.
I don't know if it was horrible because of the contrast between numbness and my normal pain level or if it was horrible because there had been a giant needle in there hours before. Suffice it to say, Ouch. I'm glad I didn't do much after the test. Also with return of the pain came an enormous appetite and incredible fatigue.
I ate two dinner, chips and guacamole and lots of cookies before falling into a deep sleep. I had weird dreams about drowning, I wonder if they're related to the procedure. It'll be Tuesday before I see my new ortho and found out the plan. At least we know the problems is with my bones. We'll see...
