Anyone remember that song? "Love Hurts"? Thats what they say anyways. So for the last two nights and today I'm feeling major love. The foot thing again. New Doctor informs me there is no way that my foot can be causing me any pain, let alone the pain I describe.
Essentially - I take that as an insult. I wont go into the long drawn out story of yesterdays X-rays and the no show report and further refuting of my claims. I tell ya - I honestly dread even considering laying down to go to sleep. The pain is most intense at night when I try to sleep - and hence no sleep for the last two nights, getting only some cat-naps during the day in between the pain surges. The pain hits in a seizure fashion when I lay down in about an hour - and just keeps hitting off and on, just minutes apart.
So yes - if love hurts, I'm feeling it. Excuse me as I talk to my foot for a second - give me some privacy here folks....,
"Foot - we've been good friends for a lifetime but you're gunna have to stop loving me so much. I liked us best as just good friends. Oh c'mon! Don't give me that -wounded puppy dawg look! You know I cant deal with that. This doesn't mean we cant see each other. Quite the contrary. It's you and me to the end baby.., but I cant take the love anymore. Its killing me."
AHEM... anyways..., I hope your love live isn't hurting you as much as mine is me. Assuming love really does hurt, that is. I've gotta find a doctor that takes his patients at their word and doesn't call them a liar. I would far more appreciate a doctor what says.., "I gotta be honest. I don't know what the problem is at this point - so I'm sending you to see Doctor Specialist....". I respect an honest doctor. I really do.

Some of us are old enough to consider that song a Roy Orbison tune, rather than a Cheap Trick song. Or perhaps even younger artists have re-re-made it?
Doctors and pain. Sheesh. You and I, Daveman, ought to get together and chew the fat sometime. |

Sometimes you just hafta get fussy w/them doctors. I have dealt ALL MY LIFE w/docs who wanna tell me I ain't hurtin' (or ain't hurtin' as bad) as I sez I am!!! GAH!
HOW DO THEY KNOW?!?!??!
So it's like this....you either get that dadblasted foot fixed or....GET RID OF IT!!!
If thy foot offendeth thee...CUT IT OFF!
That's in the Bible, right?
:)
Seriously...hope you get some relief!! This is gettin' ridiculous! |

Gosh, all this doctor dumping talk has me ready to dump MY doctor. "Because Daveman's foot still hurts, that's why!!"
Dump him, even if it hurts. |

Yep, that guy would be GONE! You really need to find a new doctor, Daveman. But you know that.
Xrays won't show muscle, tendon, soft tissue injury, or anything to do with blood circulation. You need to find someone that will do an MRI or cat scan or something. Pain that intense is a definite sign that something is not working correctly! |

Pen is right of course. You must let him see your vulnerability. You also should just switch to the other doctor or a third one. You keep fooling around and you'll lose that foot. Switch to the other doctor and authorize all of your records to go to him and have nothing more to do with doc 1. IMHO, of course. |

when one must go to a doctor one has to loose any inhibitions one has so that the doc can see you at your most vunrable -
i can say clearly that i have had several bad docs in a lifetime - mis diagnosed etc... and end up on a cutting table 3 times because of it -
when a doc wont listen to you its time to change docs - plain and simple -
im ready to leave mine soon if i dont get the right answers - not a first for me but it might be the last -
i agree...
LOVE HURTS *sighs |
