I Need Somewhere To Vent, Without Fear Of Judgement

I am in so much pain it is almost unbearable and no one can help me until Medicare approves or disapproves the MRI my Orthopedic Surgeon ordered!! I can't take anything for the pain until after I have had the MRI either!!

Update: I will be having an MRI on Tuesday! Thank you for all your prayers and kind wishes.

Update: I have had the MRI, X-rays of knees and hips and a lot of bloodwork. Still no answers.

Next will be some nerve tests (EMD) and a visit to a rheumatologist.

Update: The nerve conductive study was done yesterday. I am waiting to hear the results as soon as the report has been written.

Update: I got the results back from the test on Monday. It was great news. My nerves and muscles are all working properly.

Update: I was able to get an earlier appointment to see the rheumatologist on the 4th of March! That is good news.

Another update:

I saw the rheumatoid specialist today. He believes I have an autoimmune disease. There are 80 different autoimmune disease so, it might take a while to find out which one I have. He has ordered more tests. He prescribed muscles relaxers and quinine. The good news is that I can get back into the gym now. 馃挭

@SweetMae Looks like progress from here!!

Getting beyond the question of whether exercise or any activity will help or cause further damage is a big leap in the pease of mind category.

Good bless you. Hang in there.
