Guest guest Posted August 31, 2001 Report Share Posted August 31, 2001 HI Everyone, Thought I would send a quick update and let you know what is up in our corner. We met with Chris' Nuerologist on Wednesday. The appoinment did not go well. He said could have had a stroke or that the spot could be a cyst. He doesn't know what to do about it. We left his office with a perscription for Migraines and instructions to go see a ENT Dr. Then we are to come back in a month(for what we are unsure)We were feeling quite lost and uncomfortable! I tried to get an appoinment with a new neurologist, unfortunatly we need a referal from the old Dr. So I called and got the run around from His nurse. Honestly she was rude and abnoxious!!!! So this am and I took a trip to Zimmer and met with Robin in Human resources. She apologized for all the red tape we are expieriencing and they were going to cut through it for us. She said if they continue to give us the run around then we will go through the company Dr and get Chris' refferal. Overall I felt so much better when we left Zimmer. So this was a relief. It's bad enough I have to fight with my Drs......now I am fighting with Chris' too and this shouldn't be. is still having headaches and dizziness as well as noises and overall feeling like crap! They have put him on short term disability. No driving or heavy machinery. As for me.......I have an appoinment with my internist Sept 12th. I can't wait!!! I have been having terrible pains in my joints. Mostly my hands and wrists. My writing has gotten pretty bad now and I can no longer type like I use to......hence forth my scarce emails. I have been having terrible back spasms...they take my breath away they hurt so bad. Luckily my Pancreas has been pretty stable and only hurts occasionaly. I was turned down for my first round of SSD(social security disability) I have contacted a lawyer and will be appealing this week. My Mother in law went back home on Tuesday. It was so nice to have her here....we miss her already. Not much else right now. Will keep you posted as we go. We hope all is well with you and we thank you so much for your prayers and support. Love, Becky and Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
