Mark -Re: Trouble with SSD and now diagnosis ?

[Guest guest]

Well the doctor has been my PCP for going on 4 yrs now. He just

recently started doing the drug testing mainly for insurance

purpose's. Tenncare had to kick off over 300,000 ppl. Some were

very sick and near death. I was lucky and since I had disablity

they couldn't kick me off. You all know how much our scripts are

each month. My doc is cool on giving me anything I want. I myself

told him that was fine to do the testing so that way if the

insurance wanted to ask if I was actually call my doc up and ask him

if he knew I was taking all the meds then all he would have to do is

send in a copy of the blood test.

I guess it just goes back to having CP for almost 20yrs. It was

hard for me to find a doc when I was 10 to prescribe me tyneol #3

and mephrghan. Sorry can't spell right now in a little pain.

Anyways, I worked really hard to get disablity and I don't see a

problem with the drug testing. It is like I tell my doc the

morphine I get each month is NOT going to take all my pain away but

it is good to know that I have a doctor that truly know's that I am

sick and he is going to be behind me till the end. Hope that

everyone is having a pain free weekend...
