Jaysen’s MJD Blog

Sorry it took us so long

November 16th, 2007

Sorry it took so long to get going on this blog but we had a few problems gettin it set up. Well Jay has had two spinals done already . The first one went great. He has no headache, just a stiff back.  He was ready to get up after 4 hours but we almost had to hog tie him down. We did manage to keep him down for 5 hours then he figured he needed to pace the halls. The first and second round of pacing the nurse told him to go back to his room to lie down and on the 3rd round the doctor came and told him to go lie down. He had no problems. But on the second injection he had major problems. Needed to have for freezing because he felt most of the procedure and he went into shock,but the good thing that came out of this is that he got some good pain killers and slept most of the next day. We talked to the doctors about the freezing and they are going to give him more the next time.  The funny thing is watching him sleep in these beds because he is 6ft 1 inch and he  is stuffed in the bed.  The accupuncture  he is not loving to much.  I do see a difference in his pyhsio he is doing it much better after the 1st stem cell injection.  Also he has noticed  his swollowing is much better. He doesn’t choke as easy when he eats.  But it sure didn’t affect his eating any. He still eats like a horse.
