Guest guest Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 My sweet ladies, my rheumatologist is unique, because he never gives me any medication. He just called me a few minutes ago, and told me that he is worried about my leg. This man is very gentle in his approach, and has ordered a scan to be done on my leg Thursday morning. He thinks that I could have a hairline fracture. What is a scan...just a plain old scan, or did he mean a CT-scan...wonders me? Sending love to each and every one of you....Lea ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Re: Re: Rapid Heartbeat Patty,Yes, they push meds like a drug seller on the street.LyndaAt 12:14 AM 1/22/2008, you wrote:>Me too Lynda.
