MDJunction to me

Claire138"It's been a year since I joined the Parkinson's Disease Support Group on MDJunction and all I can say is thank you all for the support, compassion and friendship I've received and been able to give as well. It was a lonely night when I came upon this site, but the nights aren't that lonely anymore...
With gratitude to all...

Hi everyone, well i went to my supposed surgeon appt, i have waited for all this time, just to end up at a pain clinic, i am ready to scream, i have been run around ever since my injury Christmas Day.

It has been so long the fractures of the saccrum are healed. I have waited for this appointment for a long time i was told this dr,does micro surgery, he was a pain specilist which i alredy have 2 of, i was fit to be tied and still am.I see my PCP on april 4 so we have to start from scratch and find a neurosurgeon, i am not going to anymore ortho's obviously they dont know what there doing an otho dr. is who sent me for surgery to a pain clinic.How stupid! in the meantime i cant handle the pain and i cannot feel my right leg and it is spreading to the groin, i am in trouble and my PCP just has to get me in stat to a neuro. I have been out first sick with the flu, then husband landed in hospital by ambulance w/flu and a 2nd degree burn about 7" round including the infection, so all week feeling so week my hubby has been hospitalized 2x's and 3 doctors today he is at an appt. for his burn for wound care, he was burned aand caught on fire by a cetaline torch someone was using it burned theough hid pant leg then his booot melted into his leg, i am at the end of my poor rope.My pain in spite of the meds stayes at a 10. I know i have to be patient but my gosh how much can i take, it is my turn to complain, and vent , thanks for letting me get this off my chest, i am back by the way , Love you Debi acceptance quote

i am not a medical professional or a counselor, please seek a doctors opinion, and seek professional counseling, my opinions are my own and not professional, please use common sense and get appropriate care by a professional. Thanks i am not being rude just responsible. Thanks Debi

I'm an Advocate

Debi,

Sweetie, I am just sooooo sorry that you've had this run around, and then on top of it your hubby has been injured and you've been sick. I wish I could do more to help you other than pray for you and be here for you, but that's what I can do for you now. I'm just so sorry, and I want things to get better for you. Do what you need to do, we're all here for you, and just know we're thinking about you and hoping you'll get what you need.

Much love and hugs,

Jen Smile

Just because it's impossible doesn't mean it can't happen.

I'm not a doc, so anything I say is my opinion only. Nothing I say is meant as offense, I offer what I can as help. I believe in educating myself on all my medical issues and being my own advocate, for no one else with do that on my behalf. I recommend we all do the same!

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Perhaps I truly am insane for expecting these docs to listen to me when I say the same things repeatedly to no avail? LOL. I am tired of seeking out new docs and getting the same result time and again...Forgive me if I seem bitter some days.

Something has changed within me/Something is not the same/I'm through with playing by/The rules of someone else's game/Too late for second-guessing/Too late to go back to sleep/It's time to trust my instincts/Close my eyes and leap...I'm through accepting limits/Cuz someone says they're so/Some things I can not change/But till I try I'll never know/Too long I've been afraid of/Losing love I guess I lost/Well if that's love/It comes at much too high a cost/I'd sooner buy Defying Gravity/Kiss me good-bye I'm Defying Gravity/I think I'll try Defying Gravity/And you won't bring me down...
