Good Morning,

I am quite thin myself. The doctor's comment about me was exactly this, "You are skinny, really skinny." At the time, I thought it was just a very nice compliment, now I feel like maybe he was "sizing me up" for where he would put the "power source."

This is all happening all very fast. I saw my orthopedic surgeon and he said there was nothing he could do for me surgically. While I was in his office, he actually texted to Pain Management doctor. Before I was even leaving one doctor's office, the other doctor's office was calling to make my appointment. I was able to get into the Pain Management doctor's office the very next day.

I only saw him for like 20 minutes before he ordered my Psychological Evaluation and MRI. It will kinda like a tornado, over quickly but lots to clean up after the appointment.

I have to say, I am just not sure what to do??? I need to be cognitively alert to do my job, so any kind of narcotic is really not an option. I do not like to be in pain and I do not like to live in fear.

What I hate the most, it this feels like it is completely taking over my entire life.. And no one around me understands how I feel.

I am sorry for just spilling my story here and now. My follow up appointment with Pain Management doctor on July 5, 2012. The Psych Eval and MRI are complete..
