My visit was largely a waste of time. Looked at the x-rays, agreed that I had arthritis, and referred me to a rehab place.
Spoke to the rehab doctor and he said that the waiting list was extremely long, and after looking at my notes suggested that he could do nothing for me as it was just wear and tear and I'd never get well enough to work again.

Wasn't until several years later that a new pain doctor correctly diagnosed my problem as muscular, saying my arthritis wasn't all that bad. I'd have been able to keep working if this had been done all those years previously.

It's getting to be more of a problem now, but still just an age thing for me.
Magnesium has cured my muscle problems.

What all were you expecting?

Doc

talk and he ordered blood work
