I went to the doctor today, got there for 1pm, my appt was for 1:30pm I didn't get called untill 2:25 when my daughter went to complain because my back was starting to hurt waiting so long. 3 people who were not there before me, went in before me. I was told their appt was before mine, I don't care, it should go by when you get there!
Anyway, I have pain meds (Tramadol) and muscle relaxers (Cyclobenzaprine) I also got some nasal spray for my sinus problems :)
I told him the whole story about my accident in 2003 and the chiropractor who showed me x-rays of a deteriating back and come to find out they were not mine when I went to apply for disibility, so now the question is what is wrong with my back!
I also told him I wanted to cover my basis I knew from the internet that ovarian cancer can cause the same pain.
I have to go back to get a pap done. He wants to test that then see if we need an ultrasound. He said it may be ovaries, but can't be sure. So still no MRI until he gets my report, but I feel better that I have started the process to find out what is wrong with my back and now I can clean my house without PAIN!! Woo HOO

Oh icy, how horrid to have to wait for so long before you got seen by the dr and what a pain that the other people got in to see him before you did, definitely not fair!
Sorry to hear that the x-rays weren't even yours! Wow that could have been a really bad mistake but at least things are looking up and by the sound of it the medication you are on now allows to get about a bit!
Good idea of yours to go check out the ovarian thing, that big C has a way of hitting us when we least expect it! Well at least you seem to be on the road to recovery, even if it is just the first couple of tentative steps. That's the way to go, girl!!!!
Thanks for sharing this with us. :)

Good for you, I hope it is a very small thing causing your back pain and most times it is.. Keep after the doc until he finds out and makes it better, after all, that is his job.. Hope things get better for you..
