Ugh. While I am still hopeful (for a few more minutes), I happened to get a call from my insurance case manager today.
I am on a roll here I guess. What part of my function has decreased to the point of
a) once/week shower
b) ambulation/activity limited to bathroom & bed for the past 5 weeks
do these doctors not understand??? I had to ask my case manager to look into wheelchairs. She suggested I maybe consider another doctor in Chicago. Hello, 2 hour train ride is no bueno for the pain/swelling...I only agreed to RIC because of the "possibilities" it holds...possibilities I might add that I have been waiting for since mid-September.
I am seriously about to give up. I have a healthcare team that simply does not care that they have a patient whose condition is rapidly declining nearly entirely due to inadequate (read non-existent) pain management. Damn CDC/FDA.
