Still Irritated
OK, I’m still waiting to find out when my MRI is. This is totally ridiculous.Yesterday I spent 40 minutes on the phone , mind you- in between seeing my patients , at my cardiology office hacking it out with my health insurance company about an authorization number for the Head MRI. The woman on the phone did not even know what an MRI was ! I didn’t even bother explaining DBS to her ! A lost cause. It was only after warning her that I would report her to the NYS Health Commissioner that I finally was given an authorization number. I passed the information along to my neurosurgeon’s secretary for scheduling, but I’m still waiting….Is this optimal health care or not ? Each day my dystonia seems to be returning with a vengeance- the head and neck are now twisting to the left, the upper body the other way and the butt and legs go whichever way they want to. I have no control ! Klonopin isn’t holding me. Time to give my old neurologist a call and ask for a few MyoBloc injections, my magic potion that will help with my neck symptoms at least. I still felt irritated.
And I still had to go buy my sister a birthday present of sorts.
