Guest guest Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Thanks It was the ER doctor, but a friend who is a rheumatologist and my family doctor told me to go to the hospital. The ER doc wasn't very good. He grabbed my leg so hard that I screamed. I had just told him how sore my legs are, but he grabbed anyway and left his finger imprints on my skin. I think I insulted him because I asked him to stop. My friend jumped and told him how bad my legs were, and he just stood there. I am going to my family doctor today, she is also a friend. I still don't have insurance, but she said she will help me in anyway that she can. She wants me to try to get on disability. My heart is a mess and I was told before that I will probably need a pacemaker, and I probably do now. Five years ago, an echo showed pulmonary hypertension. This is hard. People around me don't understand why I want to keep on working (i work at home), but it all that I have left. They have normal lives, and I basically have no life. Not feeling sorry for myself, just trying to deal with myself. I fight myself a lot. It's hard to give up and give in. Thanks Bonnie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
