Guest guest Posted July 16, 2010 Report Share Posted July 16, 2010 Ok, I have discussed my stuff with this group. You have been great with me. This afternoon, in a short bit, some friends are taking me to ER. i called the neuro clinic yestrday. They gave me some run around. I left a message with the dr. Today the nurse called me. She said something about it being a headache. I told her it wasn't just a headache. I had told it was much more. She called the clinic back. They called back for an appt - in 3 weeks. I am not waiting for 3 weeks before I see them. I know that they are pu-puing me about this being only a headache that I have been talking about for 9 + months. The problem is that I have other issues that are getting worse. With the help of my friends, I made a list to present to the ER drs today. Something has to be done. I am sick of being pushed about. I can not wait until someting worse happens and I am not able to function. I have a special needs son who is only 14 yr old. I can not lose my ability to function and take care of him. What would happen to him? Today I gave a speech for Toastmasters. A couple of the people commented that I was pausing and hesitating in my talking. This was unusual. It was like I was losing my train of thought. I told one of them what was going on with my health. The other I just told I would work on it. I really hope that I can get some help today. I would like any other suggestions you have for me in dealing with the drs that are putting me off. Some of you said that the CT/MRI do not necessarily show TIAs. So how do you get them dx? HOw do you get the attention of the drs? I need some help. thanks, God has so blessed me with such a special child. I do not know what I did to deserve him. Have you thanked God for your child today. maryruth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
