Yeah, I BET Dr W is gonna try the 'CYA' tactics......and that's why I'm wondering about the repeated calls to the colleague (the Ortho) to perhaps try and find suggestions/tools he can use in his favor.....?
But the legalities aren't in our hands.......we're here for Bobber....
I do think the 'journaling' thing is good idea, to be used in B's favor if this turns into a nit-pickin detailed play-by-play........
It's obvious Dr W messed up. One of the first things that peeved me was reading about the 'placebo' trial to see if there is 'malingering' going on! OMG

That right there showed me what this Dr "W" is made of and where his priorities lie...................man, I'm ticked about this!!
...........*deep breath*........

Well, for the sake of 'Keeping the Faith', i'm gonna put on my happy face and Trust God......I bet that's what Bobber would be typing to us if he were able to type.....
......praying for this to turn around........
I'm sure he's got his family and support system right there with him.......
Very anxious to hear how the Ketamine goes!!
At least he's finally getting put on the 'A' list of healthcare priorities!

You da man, Bobber....YOU da bomb! (.....he said that to me in a pm a while back...... )

I'm so sorry this happened. I just wanted to add my prayers and support. I'm sickened, saddened and just wanting you to get wonderful treatment from here on out that really relieves your pain.

Any updates ?

My prayers continue for you Bobber !

Bobber, please know my thoughts are with you and your family. It so unbelievable what you have been thru. I lost my Mom thru an idiot Dr. and then tried to cover up. But we discovered that in the discovery process and despositions. Went thru trial and a big guilty on the doc.
Anyway, Bobber, there is a well known neurological hospital in Phoenix, AZ called Barrows Neurological Institute. My own RSD neurologist had his back surgery there. Have you found a hospital yet?
I'm still working on the internal pelvic RSD solution. I'm burning hot going up to stomach area also. I would think this tragedy might have caused more burning for you. It's tough. Thinking of you-will pm you. loretta
