My Story

[Symphony]

Wow, I haven't read through all this, KristiAnn, but I can't believe no one else has responded.  Since January, too.
I'm sorry about that.


I want to read through this this evening.  But I don't want to print it out(too much paper).

So I'll have to log back on with my laptop where I can be more comfortable when I read it.

But so far looks like lots of suffering on your part.  Ouch.  

[Symphony]

Oops - sorry, sincereheart  , DW  , and jive  .  My big mistake.

Thank you all for your good responses.  

I see now that some have responded.  Whew, it's next morning, I can see a little better now.


Whew, KristiAnn, so sorry about your eternal discomfort, pain and hardship.

Whew.  

It sounds like your roommate helps you, tho she gets angry and, terribly, is into the porn thing.  Yuck is right.

But she helps you dress.   At least that is good.

Boy, sure sorry about your dad, KristiAnn.  I'm so sorry.  So much grief in the world.

I think that's how Brian Keith died, a few years back.  He had an illness - can't 'member if it was some kind of cancer, or what.  But he finally ended his own life, that way, too.  He was a favorite TV actor of the 1960s.  Maybe you remember him, I think you might have been old enough.  The TV sitcom, Family Affair?

But he always looked a little ill there, even at that time, in the show.

But I sure am sorry about your dad, and your situation...


Praying for KristiAnn, in Oregon....

Last night (October 8th, 2004) at 6PM was my 4th MRI, this time they only did my lower back. I have been so confused lately; I goofed on the dates and times. My MRI was at 6PM and my other tests are on October 12th, 2004 at 9AM in the morning.

My dizziness caught up with me, and I felt really bad driving to the hospital. I threw up in the hospital in a fichus tree planter just before my 4th MRI. I am still not feeling well at all. I have been without my Anti-depressants my 100mg of Zoloft for 6 days now, I ran out of them 6 days ago. I have tried to call the Old Town Clinic for an appointment to see my doctor and all I get is a recording to push all kinds of buttons, and I finally left a message more than one with No return calls back to me!!

I drove home after my 4th MRI and had to rest in my Jeep Grand Cherokee before I could walk again inside without being dizzy. The only thing I have been able to keep down for two days in two apples and some water. One apple a day is all I have had for two days.

I need to file a lawsuit against Capital One Credit Card for having a collection agency call me everyday and sometime more than once in one day. I have told them more than once I am severely disabled and have not had an income since July 21st, 2003. In fact this one man named Aaron calls me everyday and told Katherine she is a Control Freak. One collection female told me I must get the money from family or friends to pay them. My bill was only $200.00 when I lost my job, I called them right away and let them to stop all charges on my Credit Card and they did not, now the bill in over $900.00 and I have Not used this card since I lost my job!!

I am getting sick again and dizzy, So, I am going to lay down again, maybe watch some television for awhile.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*


I filed bankruptcy Chaper 7 back in I think 1997.

I am an emotional mess being without my Zoloft for 7 days now.  I was taking 100mg of Zoloft a day since 2001. What doctor in their right mind would let someone they're treating run of of their anti-depressents, NONE!!

My doctor shows no care for the people she takes care of!

These are my aliments below;



1 ) Anxiety

2 ) Arthritis

3 ) Astigmatism

4 ) Birth Defect

5 ) Broken Teeth

6 ) Color Blind

7 ) Depression  

8 ) Heart Burn

9 ) Herniated Disk

10 ) Sleep Disorder

Okay, I know God Helps those who help themselves sometimes.


I called my doctors office, they told me to call my Pharmacy for my Zoloft. I did this and the Pharmacy faxed my doctors office, then less than 2 hours later my Pharmacy called me back and said my Zoloft is ready to pick up, YaY!!


Love Always, \o/

I see two Neurologists tomorrow October 12th, 2004 at 9AM in the morning for more tests!

I am still getting Migraine Headaches everyday..  

[Symphony]

Ouch, MsGuidedAngel.

Migraine's are murder.

Maybe try some rosemary in hot, steaming water - like a tea.

ANd maybe a little cayenne pepper in it too.  Might help dilate your blood vessels, helping for easier blood flow.

Sip it slowly.  It doesnt taste too bad, and might relieve a little tension.

[Kristi Ann]

Well I do Not have good news after my doctors visit today.  The Two MRIs I had one for my neck and the other for my lower back.

I have a herniated disk in my lower back between L4 - L5, and my neck at which I knew I had is C5 - C6.  They are going to start me on therapy right away, and I see the neurologist again December 1st, 2004 at 11:30AM.

Dr. Wilson is a Very nice doctor and explained my MRI pictures of my neck and lower back in very easy detail so I could understand it. He gave me the MRI pictures and I am going to scan them unto my hard-drive to save.

I know know why I have a hard time sleeping, two herniations in my back are causing me a lot of pain!

[TigerLily]

My first Physical therapy appointment I got lost at Mount Hood Medical Center, it's a very spread out BIG hospital in Gresham, Oregon. So, I didn't have any physical therapy, I just filled out the paper work. So now Next time I don't have to fill out anymore paper work.

My next Physical Therapy Appointment is tomorrow (October 21st, 2004) at Mount Hood Medical Center Suite 106 at 12noon. I am getting cold chills down my spine again from my C5-C6 ruptured disk and cold chills from my L4-L5 ruptured disk up my spine and down my legs. I might be in a wheel chair soon, both of my knees are grinding and poping as I walk.

I have been in so much pain lately this is why I haven't posted much at all. I am super tired.

Ooopsy, I have some wonderful News though, sorry I forgot. I called my Attorney today (October 19th, 2004) and talked to the paralegal Steve who is assiting my lawyer. I called to tell them I have my Third and Fourth MRI pictures, Steve got all excitied and said wonderful that I have the MRI pictures and they are calling me into their office sometime in December 2004 to get ready for my Trial with the Social Security Administration, I am seeing them for a Pre Trial set up YaY!!

Love Always, \o/

I went and seen my doctor today, and she gave me all my prescriptions for six months this time. Instead of her only giving me 30 pills of Vicodin, she gave me 60 this month. I need to see her next month again and get a report from the Neurologist Doctor about my Two Ruptured Disks in my back.

I had Physical Therapy today and they did traction on my neck for my C5-C6 ruptured disk and my therapist is going to see if my Neurologist Doctor will approve of a home traction device that I can use for my neck! This is more than any other therapist has ever done for me. I have to wait and see if the Oregon Health Plan that us Federally Funded will cover the cost of it. This is because I have had no income since July 2003.

I have a migraine headache, I took a vicodin pain pill about 1 hour ago and I am super tried. I am fighting from crying, because I am hurting badly for not having income for almost two years now...

[Symphony]

Houdy do, MsGuided angel.

I seen my Neurologist Doctor yesterday. He read me the Report from my 3rd and 4th MRI's. He has given me a prescription for a home traction device for my C5-C6 ruptured disk. And one for a new neck brace as my old one is worn out. However, he did tell me my L4-L5 rupture is really bad on one side towards the spinal cord with not enough room for my nerves to go through. He still thinks I am not a candidate for surgery for either disk rupture. To me this makes me upset, I have been living in this Pain of my two disk ruptures for more than 10 years now. And my birth defect, arthritis since birth. No one ever Looks at my birth defect anymore!

He (the Neurologist) also was going to make an appointment with a Neurosurgeon for both of my disk ruptures. I was excited leaving his office knowing soon hopefully something could be done about my pain. When I got home there was a message on my answering machine from Doctor Wilson's office saying;

"The Oregon Health Plan will NOT cover me going to see an Neurosurgeon unless it's life threatening! GRRRRRRRRR. This means I CANNOT get my two ruptured disks at C5-C6 and L4-L5 fixes at all in any surgery!! The Oregon Health Plan does the same with my two Broken Teeth (My two back bottom molars), I get the same story, unless it's an Emergency, then they only cover pulling them and NOT fixing them!

SOMETHING is wrong HERE!! What is Wrong with the USA and it's Health Care!!!!!!!!!!! The Oregon Health Plan is Federally Funded........

My Neurologist Doctor is continuing Light Physical Therapy for me still. I have had it with Physical Therapy! I have been doing this for 10 years when they found my first rupture at C5-C6, it lasted for a little bit then ended. I then revert back to the pain and Migraine headaches I get everyday!

I know God is testing me, I just don't know how long I can keep Living in Pain since my Birth!!

KristiAnn, do you know if there's a Dental College in your area?  I've just been through 18 months of dental treatment in London, Ontario (about 2 hours from where I live) and the cost is minimal.  And since my husband died, my income was cut drastically so they let me pay such a tiny amount each month with no interest.  And you get a better job done at a Dental College as they have the time to spend and the professor is right there making sure that the work is done perfectly.

My friend found out that there's one in Edmonton, Alberta and so she travelled to there to get to partial plates done and she's so happy with the work.

So this might be something you could check for your teeth problems.
