Geez - well at least now your doctors at least listening to you about it not being "okay" and will hopefully get to the bottom of it.Hi everyoneI have a 200+ post read back to do but wanted to touch base. Yesterday was my anniversary and Dr apt. Bill went with me and it proved to be a good idea because he was much more attentive. He looked at all my photos and stated "something is definitely wrong". The problem with the statement is that his second comment was "I have no idea what is going on with it but it is not normal". He did state that it has some clinical manifestations of RSD however he is still not convinced that that is what it is. He has put me in therapy for another 4 weeks and ordered me a TENS unit for pain. He says no surgery until we can get the pain and swelling more localized as he fears surgery would make matters even worse and trigger an exacerbation of whatever is going on. In response ti Bill's final questions.. "no this is not normal, no it shouldn't be taking this long to recover and I have no idea what this is" although discouraged, frustrated and scared I admire him for acknowledging the fact that something is wrong and humbly admitting that he is not sure what it is or what to do about it rather than cutting in to me a second time. He did state he thinks it may be circulatory but does not know the cause but suggested I use it more and that the circulatory problems may be from lack of use and to "push harder". I did tell him that most everything takes 2 hands to do and I do everything I can that I am strong enough to do or that isn't dangerous. Thank you for you prayers, care and concern.
I'm not sure how the insurance company will deal with the new "diagnosis of undetermined" but I will deal with that as it comes. No reason to worry about something until it happens![]()

Morning Dax...Thank you Abi. I hope yours is great too. What have you been up to?
I know that, and I know that it isn't my fault, l know who I am.
But Biology is not an obligatory subject to lern, THY CHOOSE TO LERN IT, so how stupid can you be to choose something that you don't give a F..... about it??
Dunno - I choose to learn things that are difficult for me to learn sometimes, too though... so i'm the wrong person to ask.
Maybe the person has a learning disability.
