Mike and I took the paperwork to my dr. this morning (actually it was afternoon because we sat in the waiting room for about an hr and a half!)
We had already filled out the copies of the sheets ourselves in what we hoped the dr. would use to copy from.......well he didn't exactly do that. We had a copy of my job description which states all the stuff I should be able to do for my job.....one of them being 'lifting up to 100 pounds' , pushing, kneeling, standing, bending etc........ My dr. stated that I couldn't lift over 25 pounds (because of the Arthritis I have in my shoulder and knee), that I can't bend or kneel.....on and on......you get the picture. I'm sure he thought he was doing me a favor by writing all that but actually I think he slit my wrist. I don't think the school district is going to allow me to work if I can't do all those things at 100%.
Also I had to give my school district a copy of my biopsy that proved I have Neuropathy and the MRI that showed I have Arthritis. The district asked if we'd give the district access to my file at the dr. office! We said "NO! We'll send you the biopsy report and the MRI report!" I didn't want them rummaging thru my whole file with blood work and other MRI's etc....not that I have anything to hide......I just don't care for everyone at the Adm. Bldging knowing all that info.
So anyway, the PR gal for the district said she'd give all the info to the Superintendents Assistant and she'll get back with us.....in 1-2 weeks. In the mean time I'm on FMLA with no money coming in and will probably have to come up with money to pay my own insurance premiums till I get a pay check (after I start back to work) Isn't life just SO much fun??? lol
