@okwrangler
I totally understand your frustration. I've had Epilepsy for 54 years and received some lousy advice and care but I fought back. My dad was paralyzed caused by a drunk. I took various doctors to court on his behalf 5 times not to mention arbitration hearings for my mom & dad.
Sorry to disagree Laurie @artist01 but nice doesn't always work. Sometimes you have to fight for your rights.

@jakedduck1 and @okwrangler. I hear what you're saying, Jake. "Nice doesn't always work". Believe me, I've gone through the same mill for over 65 of my 86 years, for many, many times too. All I'm saying to @okwrangler is that, at first, in order to get ANYWHERE with the medical system, you kinda' have to play the game in the hope of getting the help you need. We have to try not to be a pain in the neck to the docs at first. I've had to "comply" more times than enough just in order to keep the ball rolling in the direction I need it to roll. It's difficult to help Wrangler get the help he so urgently needs.
