It just occurred to me that I forgot to post about my neurologist visit.
He basically said what all the other doctors have been saying, that I'm very messed up- physically and mentally. I didn't need any doctors to tell me that. He also said he'll look into sensory therapy for me and possibly a mental health therapist when I get back. Get back from where? Well, I still haven't spoken about that but I'll get to it on a different post.
He also told me that he commends me for getting out of bed every morning and doing my thing, getting stuff done, socializing, etc... I wasn't sure how to take that. On the one hand, I felt complimented; on the other hand, I didn't really think it was a choice until now. You mean I actually have the option of staying in bed all day, emotional and physical pain free?! No way!! *Ears perk up & eyes light up* I wanna stay in bed all day and do nothing!!
I had another appointment with them to conduct a balance test, which seemed more like an eye movement test. I'll get the results when I go back for the EMG in about a month.
I interrupt this post to bring you-- 14 envelopes from my insurance company! Yes, FOURTEEN! 14 letters, all stating approval of certain physical therapy procedures- most of which were not followed. Yes, the same PT place which told me they can do nothing more for me and it wasn't helping. Who not only did wrong techniques, but also applied for approval for completely other ones. WHAT?! Now I know where else I'm going next week.
:: sigh ::
Actually, now I'm not in the mood to finish this post. Maybe next time...
