Well guys let me tell ya, 2wks ago was denied my CPP disability. Last wk vertigo kicked in big time within 2 days fainted 3 times and dizzy spells have made life unbearable!!!! My extreme rib pain was diagnosed as costochondritis, and am waiting for test results for lupus. Yesterday my back pain was so extreme and noticed a lump in the lower part of my back.
I saw my gp the other day and I'm a little concerned that everything seems to be written off as fibro. I need to find a good nuerologist who can look at my spinal injury, because I just know something has changed. My tingling and numbness with the vertigo and fainting, not to mention my right leg posturing to the side of my body seem to indicate this.
I can't get any help from my rheumy, never returns calls, and when I do get in to see him he just repeats what he says the last visit and has not arranged for any treatment. I feel like I'm running around in circles!!!!
Thanks for letting me vent guys.
Take care, Patty
