Default Warning LONG RANT HERE!

Still waiting for the over $40,000. we have loaned my sister in law.....oh wait she never intends to pay us back a dime, I officially closed the bank of Malouf about 4 years ago...which is why my in laws hate me LOL! As if I care...wretched people all of them!

Greta...wanna come over and watch Wonderpets? I always feel like the mom on those old commercials about teaching your kids...like when the mom is produce shopping and you can't see the kid and she is talking to the vegetables and it starts raining ( the veggie misters) and she uses some weird thing for a hat...and all the other shoppers are looking at her like shes crazy, that would be us singing Teamwork! My hubby and I frequently look at each other and say...this is sewiousss! LOL and then crack up.

My update...went to the doc today and to say I left ****** is an understatement. First my appt was at 0930 have to be there 20 minutes early for the military so I get there around 5 after nine, waiting waiting, oh and I had my walker cause my legs are so weak I can hardly stand, Olivia is getting antsy and misbehaving...the entire waiting room clears out 3 times and still noone calls me, so finally at 1015 I say ummm I'm really going to need to reschedule if this is going to be an all day thing here, to which the reply is oh I'll call someone right now. Soooo 10 minutes later this girl comes to get me and says well your doctors behind schedule today...she doesn't rush her patients but gives them all the time they need....My reply was well my schedule only allows me to be upright without assistance for maybe 30 minutes so a phone call letting me know clinic was running late or even someone coming out and giving me the option to leave and go sit in my car for awhile would have been appreciated ( I get testy when dealing with horrible pain multiple days in a row) so she takes me back asks all the questions blah blah.

The doctor comes in I tell her I have lost confidence in my neuro she agrees with me, I tell her about all of my symptoms she says wow sounds like you are having alot of nerve related issues going on...ummm ya think? Told her I've been bawling for 3 days because of the pain...no response there,maybe she thought I wanted drugs? I dunno she didn't offer...but not what I was after as I have a well stocked supply here! I told her I wanted to see an MS specialist not just some random neuro and explained to her that I was well aware of how tricare worked and that the only covered neuros in my area aside from Portsmouth who turned me down, were the 3 civilians who were willing to accept Tricare's pennies on the dollar reimbursement. I told her about the practice in Newport News that had the largest MS population in this area and also mentioned a more specialized center like John's Hopkins or Georgetown, her reply to me was well we can try again to see if Portsmouth will take you other than that you will have to try another in network provider maybe someone who is older? Practiced longer? I asked you mean like the 90 year old rheumatologist you sent me to who wanted to check my bowels?? ( That isn't a joke) She would not even consider referring me to someone out of network, and offered no suggestions as to what I am supposed to do in the meantime with this worsening of pain/symptoms....oh wait she did order a b-12 level!

Needless to say hubby was ticked and started calling people himselfand is wating on some woman to call hime back. GRRRRRR

Now back to your regularly scheduled chat.........
