Guest guest Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 I went to the Dr today and saw the nurse practioner and she did a cbc on me and my wbc is 7.4! I am excited about this but then I ended up going to the ER again because of severe pain from my neck to my toes. Of course there wasn't anything the ER Drs could do because he said that I need an MRI and they can't order it unless it's an emergency. Well to me it WAS an emergency since I was in so much pain. But again, since I have no insurance, who cares how I feel. He did mention that it sounds like I may have Neuropathy and I looked it up online and that is the symptoms I am having. Maybe the quack Dr that I am supposed to be seeing will get around to returning my phone calls one day and I can ask him to do the MRI. I don't care what kind of test they gotta do as long as they can get to the problem and fix it and not just put me on another pill. I am SICK of the run around and all the BS I have to go through just because I am poor and can't afford health insurance. But after saying all that, I really am glad that my wbc is finally where it's supposed to be. Blessings to all, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 I'm glad too , but I see no reason why they shouldn't have done that MRI, given the pain you were in. From: wendyphillips54@...
