That's just NOT right.   Will the doctor wait a year to get paid?

Other than that, it's good hearing from you.

Had to put it down.

Thanks Wiz.

Tell me about it. And oh...they make damn sure they get paid...in fact they go out of their way to make sure of that.

Jesus tapdancing Christ! A freakin' year? WTF! Who's ass do you have to kick to get medical treatment over there?

Discussing that with Dr. Murray now.

He's heard about you (and smedley). They had to threaten him and his family to get you in at all... Naaah. Upsets me as well, bud.

Yeah...and they like to boast about treatment in the U.K. being bad! Ha! I've told doctors here what I think the problem "might" be and they look at me like deer caught in the headlights! And I use the correct terminology for their given field as well..."I" had to explain it to them what it was! It's downright scary what these "doctors" don't know and get paid for just guessing.

And you go into these clinics and they are allotted "15 minutes" to spend with you...with a student wannabe doctor. On top of that I take in all my medical records ahead of time...like a week or 2...and they don't even bother looking at them. Basically I'm screwed.

I'm so glad to see that you're still mighty pissed off with the medicos in your parts, WG... means you're still with us.

However, I think they should extract their digits from their rectums and get to fixin'  I year from now is not soon enough.

There's nothing worse than pain and discomfort [other than bankers & politicians] so let's hope that 12 month wait is drastically reduced and you're on all kinds of exotic meds real soon.... mmmmm.... mmeeeeds.  Shiver me timbers, I'd even swaller tha pink ones if'n they does tha business.

All the best to you, Steve, you're a top bloke.

Thanks Mark!

Unfortunately, the meds they've been trying to give me have been worthless...stuff like Vicodin, Fentanyl and Oxycontin has no effect on me...at least not in the doses they've been giving me. And if you ask for anything stronger they look at you like your some sort of drug addict just trying to get drugs.  And not sure I want to wait yet another year for more disappointment.

Don't get me started about the US Health System. My fiancee lives in the States and has MS and yeah, well, that's as much as I'll say 'cause beyond that I'll get seriously p***ed and feel like punching stuff.

What I will say is this... FOR SHAME! For shame on everyone of these doctors that puts a dollar sign on someones health and well-being.

Stick around, Steve. The doctors may not care too much about you, but you mean so much to the people of this community.

Don't let the b****rds grind you down.

Cold, cold I tell you... 

Yeah, thought it was too soon myself.

This state of affairs is simply intolerable.

Hey Web... you should tell the doctor he has to wait a year to get paid. Maybe that will get him off his lazy ass.

I got banned from my neurologist this week. Actually, that's not entirely true. I was banned by the whole practice. One of them put a note in my file that says I have 'behavioral issues'. Can you fucking believe that?! Me! Behavioral issues!!!! I know, I know. You're all as shocked as I was.  They went as far as to say they would prefer I not even come into the building. SO I leered at 'em from the parking lot as my wife went in to collect my files. Yup. That wife. The one with 'The List'. Guess who's on it now.

Gizmo..I pray you find relief and help and hope so very soon. I won't say I can relate but you'll be in my thoughts when I can't sleep at night and can't do the things I really want to do.

The hell you say! But that isn't right either.

Well from what I know about your problem your probably going through the same sort of thing as I am. Sleepless nights...anxiousness...frustration...constant pain and discomfort...no end in sight...wanting to do normal things but the body says no...and doctors without a clue.

I think it's time again to check in on WebGizmos again. 

Just give him a shout. Like this...

HEY WEB...HOWS IT H*****G

He's still fine. I PM'd him yesterday to get his opinion on my Wraith Rainmeter skins. He also posted in the 'I Love Slade' thread yesterday.

Thanks Starcandy. 

I actually was on messenger with him yesterday.

I can't say much, but I recall something about sunshine and purple nurples.

Everything else I either deny or have a witness.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Purple nurples? Hmmmmm

Actually:

You'll be in my thoughts and I won't be able to sleep at night.

His wife actually was in their office and everyone was looking out at him.

Have you seen your doctor?  I hear there's some little blue pills that can help with that.

Oh, and get them from a reputable outlet, not online from a shady pill peddler.  I heard of a bloke who ordered Viagra online to help with his flagging libido, and they sent him the wrong anatomical type.  Now he can't get to sleep cos his eyelids are up all night.  Then there was the bloke who got one stuck in his throat.  Now he has a stiff neck and can't shake his head when his wife asks if he'd like some more of her home-made gherkin ice cream.

Knowing your luck, though, you'd get the right type of Viagra and forget that you're home alone for the weekend.

VROOOOOOOOOOMMMMMM!!!!!!!!

It's easier to explain than when you spiked the sheep's water with it and ran around naked while you screamed 'Do me! I've been a baaaah-d boy."

Oops, wrong post.
