Mad Trapped in the middle

OK - I need help! Im caught up in a Doctor ego Bashing Party which I had nothing to do with except be the patient and have been following all docs orders.

Neuro would "prefer" to label me with all sx as psychosomatic-teehee-I know we've all gone through that dx before-so have been seeing a therapist for almost 2 years now for Neuro's orders. Therapist and Psych both agree I am NOT having psychosomatic symptoms...

So now Primary sent me to a Urologist who has now confirmed I DO have MS and have lost all bladder/bowel sensations.

He wanted Neuro to do a spinal who has "obviously refused" as he NOW believes I have MG-definitely occular MG with eye doc confirmation.

So, neuro is under fire by other docs in community for having refused my being evaluated by the MS specialist at KU Univ 1-2 years ago when the new internist who came to town from SW Med Univ in Texas had sent me to see the MS specialist without HIS knowledge. He put a stop to my being evaluated and the next thing I knew the new internist was fired!

So, neuro is now sending me to KU to see the MG/MS specialist in 2 weeks. I assume to prove his point that I ONLY have MG.

I told my therapist that the funny thing IS that I will probably end up with MS/MG AND Lupus! So ALL the docs will be right in one way or another! LOL

BUT today I have to call this neuro and get him to "explain" to Medicare why I have to travel more than 100 miles from home to be treated!!! Like he is going to ever want to admit that it is beyond his capabilities to treat me!! If he doesn't file this form then I wont get transportation or the lodging as I was planning on...

I just cant wait to see how this will all unfold. I had sent the form to my primary but apparently the "team" of docs want this neuro to fill out the form.

Sounds to me like they are forcing him to eat humble pie before them...ugh.

I hate battles...

Anyone got any suggestions? I just want this neuro to back off gracefully but I got a feeling he is going to back himself into a big corner with a lot of folks about to pounce and gnaw him into oblivion.

I'm so melodrama!

I need lots of hugs!
