What OT? What neuro? Sue I can't hardly (to this point, pre-forehead paralysis that is) get any of these a*sholes to take me seriously. I know, I have their medical reports regarding this injury. Only one mentions the impact, and that was "It does not appear that she bumped her head" GRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!! All the rest don't mention it at all. This makes me so mad, I could become unhinged over it. I read these reports and am stunned that they don't listen at all to you and then write stuff in the file that is fabricated. Like one of the neuros said they had done a corneal test on me. I don't think so! I would have remembered it, beleive me.
So I have been dealing with doctors pretty much like Scott. My new PCP had even mentioned the possibility I was faking it, I mean imagining it, although she did add that she would prefer to believe my problems are organic. Least she had the forthought to include that. She also, a few times, pushed me to see a head doctor, but I am like forget it. She did say in her report that my prior PCP mentioned it and that I had become quite angry about it. True, I was and still am. My attorneys might tap him later when this all comes to a head. The worst thing is this, I have had to wait for the Facial nerve to 'break' to make them sit up and take notice. The problem is now compounded because any extra exertion on my part makes an episode come on amazingly fast. This is so like how the arm was hurting when used, and now I can't lift it. So is this going to happen to something other than the forehead when the damage inside developes more scar tissue?
At this point I can't open my mouth fully nor clench down hard orally. So I really don't have to wear my mouth guard anymore because I can't grind my teeth in my sleep even if I wanted to. If I try to wrinkle my nose up, I look like I'm sneering. And of course the left side of my bloody neck still hurts! Just because it's not swollen and bleedy on the outside, doesn't mean it's not doing that on the freaking inside!!!
Gods, sorry. This just gets me so irritated if I went to a head doctor it would be non-stop bitch and scream about the medical community and how they've screwed me.
