This Blog is supposed to be about my journey with Parkinson’s, my thoughts and feelings and strategies I use to be able to manage. It has been a very effective way of me being able to get things out of my head and process things. In that way, although I post regularly I do not have any huge concerns or problems with my Parkinson’s and anything that does crop up I am able to get support for and solve.
My knee issues on the other hand are proving to be much more challenging for me. I suppose not least of all because no matter how much I try to put plans in motion a lot of what is happening for my knee I have very little control over. However, what I can control I certainly do.
I am going to see my Rheumatologist tomorrow and hope that he is able to have some clout and some influence over my ability to have surgery in a timely manner.
The thing is I suppose that there is no way that this Blog can be just about my Parkinson’s because nothing about me and my health journey can be considered in isolation. It all has an impact upon each other and so this Blog will always have other factors that impact on my life.
Hopefully, in the near future I can have my operation, recover and get back to pre-knee problem life. Back to riding my bike, back to going for walks with my husband and back to a reasonably pain free life.
I am pretty sure I have done all I can to put my case to those triaging the waitlist, now it’s just a matter of waiting to hear back.
Only time will tell.
