- the ongoing saga & prayer request

[Guest guest]

Hello everyone! Thanks for your posts and advice! Sorry I hadn't

written back sooner, but I wanted to see the Dr. before I updated

you.

Well, he's put me back on Methotrexate but refuses to refill the

Vicodin. Told me I needed to go back to my Primary care Dr. and

discuss some sort of pain management. So I continue to be in pain

and am taking lots of tylenol to try to handle it. In the meantime,

I'm going to try to get an appt. with a new Rheumatologist, because

it's clear my current one is no longer willing to help me.

In the meantime, my disability claim was denied and I'm supposed to

go back to work. I was told I have 180 days to appeal, so I'm go to

take at least a couple more days to try to get the Dr. to send in

the supporting paperwork (they've been dragging their feet). PLEASE

pray that this doesn't result in my being terminated from the job.

I'll try to post more often as I'm able. Thanks again for your

support!
