Thanks, but no I can't change doctors because I'm on a sliding scale there.

I swear if I had seen her today I probably would have smacked the hell out

of her.

I only wish we could give people a day in the life of our body. Only then

would they begin to understand.

I am also very angry with anyone who insists it is in " our head " . It is not

all in my head when I wake up so stiff I can hardly move out of bed. It is

not in my head when I hurt everywhere and continue to be so exhausted that I

can hardly put one foot in front of the other. It is not in my head when I

get the numbness creeping into my fingertips..... I can just be doing

anything or nothing and my fingers will just go numb. Thankfully, the

numbness goes away pretty quickly.

Is it possible for you to find another doctor Tigger?

love and hugs,

Debra V.

Monday, Wednesday and Fridays. I'm hurting and I'm frustrated and I want to

just choke the life out of the doctor. She's done nothing except try to

convince me it's in my head. I have a counselor that knows more than she

does, but she can't prescribe.

Am I ready to scream? No, I give up. I'm tired, I'm angry, and I'm sick

and tired of not being listened to.
