Having determined beyond all reasonable doubt that I was suffering from neuropathy, the 4th doctor released me to the care of my PCP. They didn't tell me they were releasing me, they just told me I had bilateral neuropathy. I called my PCP to get an appointment and asked her if the neuropathy could be causing the pain going down my legs towards my feet which are basically numb to sensation. Her answer was no didn't they tell you anything about that?
I successfully refrained from telling her that if they had answered that question, I wouldn't be asking her, and just said no. So she referred me to the doctor she had referred me to the first time (who I had already told about the pain going down my leg) I had described it as a pain in my hip that went down my leg.
I went on to see her and for her again about the pain in my hip that went down my leg.describing where the pain was for her.
She took an xray of my hip and when she01008434 Ogura came in to talk to me she asked me again about my pain. So I described the pain to her again exactly like I did the first time and she told me, that's not your hip, that's your lower back.
If that is my lower back. Wasn't it my lower back the first time I told her about the pain 2 months ago? And what about when I told her 20 minutes ago? And why do nurses always tell me they need a hip when they want to give you a shot in your buttocks? So they take me in the little room and take a few more x-rays. Then she comes back in....sits down on her little stool....looks over her glasses and tells me, "Your lower back is a mess."
I said "Great, what can we do about it?
She told me we were going to go to physical therapy for 6 weeks and that should set it right. So now, only 4 months after I had first told her about the pain that went down my legs, we are going to try to fix it! (I thoight I had told her, maybe I hadn't)
. another xray and look at somet
