MMMM coffee. Got to tell you Deach that I drink white castle coffee. I do not know if you have the fast food joints in your neck of the woods. But I do love their coffee and I order it (by the case) on the website. Hate buying cars good luck!!

MMM tea right now, Earl Grey. I stopped at a white castle , i think in Cookieville Tenn. while passing through. We stayed there a few blocks away. That was when i was on my way to Texas. Can't find on their website how to order coffee. Do you have the addy? have a good one, ~Deach~

Well I saw my new pain management doctor today.

OMG I AM so in LOVE!!!

he totally got not changing the meds that are working but does want to do two epidural shots since one bulge has now herniated. ANd then said we will work to find the right combo for you even if you have to come in weekly till we figure it out!! LOVE IT!!! Such a relief when a doctor says that!!

THen he wrote out a new prescript for lortab and instead of sixty pills he gave me ninty as he said he was sure with my ocd it caused alot of panic when i ran low before i could refill. OMGosh he so is right. I hate the last few days. He said fill it every thirty days or so but this way i have abit of extra if i need to take it four times a day for a bit too. Again LOVE IT! such a relief

He also said he loves that i don't just attribute every symptom to FM or CFS. I told him i had to ask for the MRI in january and he said its sad really that alot of doctors who are well meaning just attribute it to FM when they know and he knows that FM mimics alot of other things.

he also understands back pain so thoroughly as he himself has bulging and herniated discs that also does not qualify for back surgery. SO he KNOWS how I feel!!! He even has the same herniation as mine!!

He still does not understand the cervical pain but he wants to do a cervical epidural as well and see if that works. he said I dont have to know why it works just that it works and if it doesn't we will find something that does. You are way to young to be in this much pain on a daily basis.

OH and MY FAVORITE. He quoted my own quote at me before i could say it.

I am here to treat your symptoms YOU Pay me to do this and at your appt time my time is your time!!!

<<---swooning!!!!!

I get the epidural in my lumbar in two weeks and then the cervical the week after that and then the week after that i see him again for a follow up. If i am not out of pain then from my back he said he would gladly see me weekly till we find the right combo!!!

Erin<---seeing a light at the end of the tunnell!!

Well Erin I hope this doctor does good for you. Sometimes the doc/patient relationship is much like a marriage. Each should work together as a whole to make it work. Hope your pains are greatly reduced, , have a good day, ~Deach~
