Dig Through the Ditches

I know, RIGHT?

Well, I got the appointment! NOV 1st.

My Dr. is now being bitchy and UN-cooperative.
She’s probably sick of my constant requests.

It’s up to me to get the referral. Just waiting for the dude to call back. Shouldn’t be a problem…fingers crossed!

Great news, yeah well I bitch and moan about my clients too but they pay the bills and this is your about health/well being, can’t stand when people who should know better don’t get that. Fingers, toes & such all crossed for you that this new one works out for you.

are you a Dr. MT?

Thanks!

Happy Anniversary MiMsy!!!

Wouldnt recommend a DO, “holistic” does not equal “better.”

Happy belated anniversary, my first internet mom, hoping the best for you, and will say a prayer for your health issues.

Keep up the tough lifting!

Haha, er NO! But one of my clients is a big hospital though, and I deal with the head of nurse’s about patient care (the warm fuzzy kind of patient care).

oh ok…

warm fuzzy is nice…if only more were like that.

Just back from PT. I’m starting to dread and looooathe going. I leave aching and hurting for a couple days after. That doesn’t seem right. scratches head

Maybe you all can help me come up with a list of follow up questions for the Ortho I’m supposed to see again next Monday.

With the gorgeous lats you have, they must have been so flared you could have flown out of the gym :wink:

Forgot to say ‘HEY,’ to DF…thanks for stopping in, son :slight_smile:

UP- I’m feeling my wings today!! Love those banded pull ups!! Definitely a keeper…

I should take a pic. ya!

Yes you should!!! I demand pics! Lats (and quads…?)

Hmm…pain after PT for days? That doesn’t seem right to me either.

Can you please state for me why you’re going to PT anyways? I mean, you have degenerative cartilage, no? What does PT do for that? Is it just so you can safely do some leg exercises? Or are you trying to figure out some of your imbalances so that you do your leg exercises in a safer way…?

Sorry to bombard with questions! but its because I love :slight_smile:

anyways, I’m seeing my surgeon on Monday. I might ask him a bit about this. Just out my own curiosity really - he told me I have some degeneration as well.

no, not right at all. does your PT know this? if they do and keep doing the same thing, I’d look for someone new.

Maschy- I’ve been thinking the same…‘what’s the freakin point??’

Cho- I mentioned today that I was very achy last week…she took marching on the bosu off the list. sarcastically claps hands

Oh no.
I’m haggling with the referral guy. According to him they have to use all there resources(specialists in the network) within a 40mile radius first.
wtf?

He’s double checking for me. aaaand, he just called back and the Nurse said the Dr is not in the network…
BANGS HEAD

So now I make an appt with my PCM to ‘discuss my issues,’ and go from there. fuck

Fucking hell MiM, CAN SOMEONE GIVE YOU A FUCKING BREAK?!

Sorry to hear about all of this. I hope you get some damn answers soon!!

oh my god!!! i feel the seething frustration through the internet and computer screen! such bullshit you have to wade through to get decent care!

IIIRRR!! I’ll take some of your rage! JERKS!!

That’s a damned shame Betty. I’m sorry they’re are dragging you through all this bull…

Holding out hope for ya

jeezuz.
you need a break.

hugs
xx

Thanks for the sympathy(even you Ct, I’m shocked!) I thought Vampires didn’t have hearts? :wink:

Unfortunately, I’m just one of thousands of people out there trying to find a good Dr for this crizzap…(did I spell that right?lol)

Some are lucky and find someone good right away…others(like me) aren’t.
It’s an epidemic out there! And I really didn’t even know what a thyroid was until I was diagnosed, haha. The science and treatment of the thyroid is still relatively new. So all the MDs and Endos out there mostly approach it the same way…with a 10 foot pole and there trusty medical book. They band together and all think the same way cause gasp it would be too risky to think differently!


To change the subject a little…

Tryin to flex…feel a good stretch from those pull ups the other day.


I know I’ve got lats but hard to pose or flare or whatever you call it/
