Bcipam, I'm sorry to hear you're having more problems. You have had way too much on your plate to be worried about more problems. I hope they get you back on the mend again quickly!

Well, I must say I'm not surprised but very disappointed to find out it could be MONTHS before I get my MRI to find out what's going on in my back. Gotta love my insurance (NOT!!) When I wasn't hearing anything about getting my MRI this week as my doctor wanted, I called to see if it was scheduled yet. I was told NO that it wasn't scheduled and that THEY don't schedule them. The person who answered the phone said, the Doctor writes up the orders, they forward them to the department that does the CTs and MRIs and that it could take MONTHS to get one!!
I called the department again today and was told that they didn't have the orders yet that the office had to schedule the test. Sooooo I call the doctor's office back today AGAIN and tell them I was told they were supposed to make the appointment and was told that if the other office didn't have the paperwork that the DOCTOR hadn't made out the requisition yet!! All I know was that my doctor told me he wanted an MRI done THIS WEEK!! Well, it's Friday and it doesn't look like THAT'S going to happen. I don't care who is supposed to do what all I care about is I don't want to turn into a couch potato again while I'm waiting. This is so frustrating, I want to get my back healed so I can take some burdens off my mom and be able to watch my grandsons again. Tomorrow is supposed to warm back into the 40's again so I'm going to be cooped up NOT being able to ride AGAIN!!
Now I'm waiting for my meds to start working again and go lay down again. They say they are going to give the doc a message that I'd called asking about my test and have him call me. I won't hold my breath waiting for them to actually follow through with something they say that they're going to do, I might as well crawl into a cave and disappear as believe what they say. Sadly I'm not a football player who can go directly from the playing field with an injury and get tests run in a timely manner. I just tired of being tired and hurting and getting the run around. Sorry to vent again.
