I just talked to the PA for the neuro I'm seeing, and she told me that he is denying my request for more Lidocaine patches. (these were prescribed by another doctor) The reason? "He just doesn't prescribe those things for PN."

So then I asked her if she knew of any neuros who specialize in PN (thinking this guy doesn't get it and has gotta go) and she tells me there is no such thing and then she tells me she can give me an appointment with a guy who specializes in "neuro-muscular" and that that is the exact same thing as specializing in PN. That isn't true, is it? Sounds to me like something she just made up.

So now I'm ranting and spitting nails and there's nobody here to take it out on, so I figured there's always you guys. Whadda you lookin' at??!! Blow it outta yer shorts!!! Yeah, so what??!!

Thanks!
