@intheorchard I constantly question my doctors
They make mistakes working in the medical field I have seen a lot of errors. Including doctors prescribing me sulfite drugs when it sends me into anaphylactic shock. The er gave me morphine sulfate I turned purple and quit breathing if my husband had not been there I would be dead The doctors make errors someone has to ask questions. My fingers are numb when I touch my face I don’t feel anything. I freaked out thinking I had lost the feeling in my face. When my husband got back into town he touched my face and I could feel it. I do have problems with dystonia (severe muscle spasms from the neuropathy). I have a permanent knot in my neck that has been botoxed very little relief. It pulls on the occipital nerve. That causes my problems. The knot is between the neck and shoulder so it pulls on my neck going into my face and brain it also pulls on my shoulder. Another medical error that almost killed me is a contaminated batch of cortisone given in the bottom for my asthma. I was throwing up running a fever er pumped me full of Demerol said it was a migraine. My husband took me back to the er I had mrsa bacterial spinal meningitis my spinal tap showed over 250 bacterial infection. The er doctor said to my husband if you would not have brought her back inn she would have been dead. The cortisone abcessed and moved into the spinal column into the brain. Do not be afraid to ask questions. If it showed a nuclear dot the doctor needs to run a bunch more test. That typically is the start of an autoimmune disease. Did the doctor run a dna ds? Ask for a copy of your labs. My last visit to the rheumatologist my sed rate was 135 and the doctor said my labs were fine that sed rate is way too high showing inflammation in my body.
