Yesterday Kiri managed to get us into see a NP at Kaiser. We took the X-rays over, and proceeded to have the worst experience yet with these tools. The NP refused to listen, interrupted, and complained that we were confusing her with the idea that yes, I originally hurt my back, but now something else is going on. She flat out refused to touch the X-rays, meaning I had to complete sets (including chest films) in the same day. Anybody need a semi-mobile night light?
Today, after walking less than a thousand feet yesterday, I can barely move my legs. And the NP from Hell calls to say they don't see anything wrong on my films. Of course, she didn't order films of my hips, just the chest and back. I don't know whether to go on a killing spree or just cry.
I now have an appointment Wednesday with my doctor, and I am not leaving that room without a plan to figure out why i cannot walk. Because walking, y'know, is kind of important? I really don't care if this is something permanently debilitating, we've made plans for that eventuality before. I just want to know what is going on, what can we do to slow it/reverse it, and what my outlook is.
On a happier note, got around to watching
