Tired of the fight for treatment/DIC & chronic pain

@erikas . Thank you for your post. I'm safe as long as stay seated in my recliner. I have Medicaid social worker who checks on me monthly. I finally have a psychiatrist & therapist I like, but their company will probably be dropping my medicate company next month. I've contacted AARP, my county Council on Aging & Florida State resources but they don't have much to offer. I've been trying to get a motorized wheelchair for 2 years but my PC Dr can't seem to submit a proper RX for one. I'm fortunate that my best friend/brother (not related to me) lives with me, shops, cooks, etc for me, but he works so I'm alone during the day & he's stressed/short temper lately. I know he loves me but he's only 47 & could leave anytime he wants. I need to stay in our home because our fur & non-fur babies are my lifelines.

@cb772 It's good you have a social worker, psychiatrist, therapist, friend/brother, and your fur babies. It sounds like you need a motorized wheelchair right away. How frustrating to not receive the equipment you need due to an error with your doctor's orders. What sort of action have you taken to advocate for the doctor's order to be filed correctly so you can get your motorized wheelchair?
