@gigilea the Rheumatologist said because there are no other doctors to follow me, there is nothing she can do for me. The only other doctor available to follow is the one who treated me so horribly and I won’t see him. She can’t prescribe anything but prednisone at this time, but because of my untreated Osteoporosis, she doesn’t recommend it. I left without a plan, but the consideration of referring me to “Pain Management”.
I’m done seeking help. I completely give up. She did refer me for an MRI on my right wrist, but I don’t think insurance will approve it as it isn’t a rheumatology problem. It is carpal tunnel, I think, but I’m not a doctor. Just know the hand, wrist and forearm are swollen without an incident, and I can’t make a fist.
