Hi All,
Well, I just called my physician for a refill on my prescription, a prescription for pain medication. My Orthopedic Surgeon is on vacation for the next ten days. Since my he is in CA and I am now in TX they have to mail me a prescription, so I will not be able to refill my prescription for more than ten days. I am down to two pain pills. Lets hope a can keep the pain threshold down.
I also found out since I moved out of state I may not be able to see an Orthopedic Surgeon, as I am not 100% sure if I should have another surgery. Now how am I supposed to figure out whether or not to have the surgery if I can't see a surgeon. I also have to pay for all of my films and files to be sent to the next physician. Quite candidly, I had to spend so much of my money while on State Disability, and now on trying to start a home based business, so I can stay productive, that I am frustrated to have to pay money to send my films. I think the hospital could affort to send them.
I just wanted to warn those of you who might be considering moving out of your state, as it is quite common to have to move closer or in with friends or family when suffering with this condition.
Blessings to all my fellow chronic pain sufferers,
Karen
