What a Great topic ! With so many electronics , greedy businesses doctors don’t have time to set down and look thru our charts like they used to! We’re now a number not a patient . Having a failed back surgery and seeing 7 doctors since and NO ONE willing to do anything except a stimulator which I had turned on 2 weeks ago and still can’t feel it where I need it because of my spine incision is swelled and numb. I’m losing faith in the Neurosurgeons I can no longer walk without 2 canes, Walker or use a scooter . I had to set and wait 35 minutes at Walmart today to get a scooter . I can’t sleep in bed, None of them will let me explain how it has affected my bowels if I bend over I have to go, all they say is you don’t have that we looked at your MRI from a year ago. So now they’re sending me to a proctologist . I was a pipefitter for 30 years now @ 53 years old I’m totally disabled I don’t want an inexperienced surgeon trying to fix me just a surgeon that will listen more than 3 minutes and be willing to send me to the right person I rub my tailbone and the pain goes to my testicles the original surgeon with me in the wheelchair says no you don’t have that go see a urologist , my urologist laughed and said it’s my back . I’m Open to suggestions on how to sweet talk a surgeon so they will listen to me since I’m the one in the body. I’m on so much meds my kidneys are on the border between stage 2 & 3.
