Default Wooohoooo

I am sooo happy this is back. I have been looking about 5 times a day every day hoping it was back. Hopefully others will find their way back now and it will start to feel like home again!

There have been a few times I have needed help while it was down. I am having some other things going on I would like input on if things pick up again soon. I hope you were able to find some help while we were down.

Yes I can relate as well. When the board crashed I was told by my doctor that he would no longer RX pain meds for me. I had posted on that but never got to see any responses to my dilemma. I have since gone back to a pain doctor I saw a few times before who was willing to help. He is INCREDIBLE.

I still have my pcp doctor but I don't see him very much anymore. I am also in the process of seeing a Rheumatologist and a Neurologist at the Brigham's & Womens in Boston. I do hope they can help because no one else has been able to. I once had an EMG/NCV test that showed I had PN and now a recent one showed that I don't. I am going crazy over these tests and doctors but I am not giving up.

At my last pain doctor appointment I met a new nurse practioner who was AWSOME!! she swears that this is related to Lyme disease and mentioned I should send some blood to IgeneX out in California. Which I have done, just waiting on the results.

She then upped my pain meds without me asking saying no one should be in the amount of pain I have been in.

So let the fun begin.
