Guest guest Posted January 9, 2008 Report Share Posted January 9, 2008 My labs just came back & all were normal.... They are referring me to a PT who specializes in Fibro....but they are not prescribing me any meds!!!! I am in so much pain now. She says she wants me to try & manage it without drugs! WTF??? That is easy for someone else to say. Needless to say, I called my ortho back & they referred me to a Dr. who specializes in Fibro, but I can't get in until Feb 6th. So I guess I'll call back & get an appointment with my ortho again & going to the chiro today. I just really need to get on some meds so I can control this & maybe even have some energy. And most of my soreness is from riding my horse the other day....but I had to for my mental health. But...I had to ride my pleasure horse...I have not been able to ride my show horse & that upsets me. My horses are my life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 Hi Amy, I just went to my first PT vist today and it hurt at first but when he was done working with me for a short while on my upper back and I came home my upper back shoulders and hands felt better then they have in years. I was able to cook a meal for the first time in weeks I can't wait to go back next week. I'm still in pain but I can handle it. My primary Dr. referred me to a pain specialist and he is who gives me my pain meds. maybe one of your docs would do that for you. I know how you feel about the waiting though. It was hard to wait until the point someone finally listens to you and you get the help you need. Doctors can be such a pain. I hope you feel better soon Amy Bell Amy Brand wrote: My labs just came back & all were normal....
