| Peanut is at the Vet Hi Guys, On Friday I had my lower back nerve ablation- for my chronic back pain. I have been down ever since. I’m back to work and barely making it. I just might have to leave, I don’t think I can sit in this chair all day long. Anyways remember Peanut’s bump on his ear thread.. http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/gen...anuts-ear.html Well that first one is going away, however a new one has popped up! Same thing, so I dropped him off so the vet can look at it. He needs his anal’s and nails trim anyways. Poor thing- Peanut was all excited to go bye-bye this morning.. He was not happy I left him. Hopefully I get good news, hopefully it is nothing as I think it is. I will let you all know what he says.

| Sending positive thoughts for Peanut that his bump is nothing. I hope you feel better soon. How is nerve ablation performed?

Donating YT 4000 Club Member | I hope it's nothing serious with Peanut, Deanna. Is this your first ablation treatment? I used to get them in my neck and always found the first couple of days afterwards were hellacious, then it would get better. I hope you start to feel better soon.

Well from what I remember ( they gave me an IV with drugs LOL) They stick these needles in the area then they start a spark and it burns the nerves LOL. They do the procedure using the cat scan xray machine so it can guide the Dr where he needs to be.

Yes it is. I've had the steroid injections and they didn't work. The Dr is only thinking I will get 50% pain free out of this procedure- which sucks, but 50 is better than 0. You know what is strange, Sat/ Sun I really didn't hurt. I thought I was going to be in the clear. Then I woke up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom and I could barely squat down. Then I hear a crack, I thought to myself.. oh great. I woke up in horrible pain, can barely bend over- hurts like hell now. Do you still get them or don’t need them?

Donating YT 4000 Club Member | I don't get them anymore. I was being treated for something called reflexive sympathetic disorder and the maximum number of treatments recommended for it was 5. If it hasn't worked by then, it's not going to. Now they are talking about using an implantable TENS unit in my neck. I'd rather avoid more surgery!

| Oh I hope Peanut is better soon. I hope you feeling better soon as well. Back problems are no fun. Take it easy and go home from work if you have to and get some rest.

| One of the tech’s just called me. The vet has looked at the little bumps and he has confirmed they are from a clogged oil gland. I guess they come and go. I asked her to have him write down the name, so I will have that information later. I asked if there is anything I can do to prevent them and she said not really. As long as he is getting bathed and brushed there isn't really much you can do. She is going to confirm with the Vet to see.. I’m going to start to brush him more, since I get him shaved I really don’t brush him.. his hair is cut pretty short like ¼ of an inch LOL. I do still bathe him, so I will just start brushing him daily see if that helps. I’m sure brushing will help stimulate the skin, pores and all that good stuff. I’m just glad it is nothing serious, I knew it wasn’t but we all know how it is- they are our babies~ Thank you all for the support.. I’m still trying to truck it at work.
