Today is Marbi's pain doc appt. I hope that you have a really good one this time and don't get the whole "I'm gonna give you a treat and pat you on the head." approach today! Thinking about you!

Thanks so much you all for your support. Well, unfortunately it was the "pat me on the head, give me my scripts and go home". I didn't expect any different. However, hopefully soon I will be able to go to a rheumy and at least see a real dr. Maybe he will be able to do something more than that. At least then, if I decide to apply for SSDI I will have a real dr. Luckily, I do not have to go back to the pain clinic for 2 months, and MAYBE by then I will be insured.

I do appreciate you all thinking about me, and caring about my welfare. Believe me, I care deeply for each of you, and only wish the best for you! HUGS

Please do not take anything I say as medical advice. I am not a doctor.

Well dear at least the doc was exactly what you thought he was going to be, and you are done with all the for at least two months. Praying by then you will be insured and get to see a decent doc. Hugs and love.
