Disappointed

I didn't talk last night about something that happened at my pm appointment. I'm a bit angry but more disappointed. For all their "knowledge" about rsd, they can't seem to keep straight where I have rsd! She says yesterday, in both legs....and then I have to add and hips,arms,hands,shoulders,back,face. I've been going there for 3 yrs and 3 months now!!!! *rolls eyes*

When I told her what's going on with the face, the burn, heat,etc. She smiles and says, have you checked for a tooth problem? OMFG!! I don't have a tooth problem! I just got through saying I wasn't having pain like in my body but I had burning pain, the burn that comes from rsd, period end of story! When has anyone with a "tooth problem" had half of their face turn beet red and you can feel the heat coming off the skin from a distance?!?! When does a "tooth problem" produce burning deep in the cheekbone?!?!? *big sigh* I'm very, very disappointed that she would come up with some idiotic, lame excuse as that. It's not as if every time I walk in there I complain about a "new" pain or moan about anything at all. I say what my pain level is at right then, I'm doing ok, nope no problems. Get my scrips and off I go. Each visit, every 3 months for over 3 years now. This is the first time I've mentioned anything else. I've never even mentioned my on again, off again bladder thing which I know is rsd. She'd blame it on a uti. HA!! I know what they feel like. I've had way too many throughout my life and I've had it checked and they couldn't find a uti or any other problem to explain my symptoms.

I also can't have any sort of tooth problem since I don't have teeth! ROFL Whatever, I'm not one of "those" people who blame every damn thing I feel on rsd. I know what is rsd and what isn't. I hope when I go back in 3 months that my face, just the right half will be bright red and burning. Let them blame that on my "teeth" when I open wide and say look, all gone! ROFLMAO Yup.....that's what I'll do.

I believe I mentioned last night about my chest pain. I figured out what it is today. The dreaded pleurisy again. *another big sigh* Yes indeed, it's back again! Thankfully this is only the 2nd time in just over 3 years. I'm very grateful it's not in my shoulder as it was before on the left side. I can still move my arm for the most part. I can't reach or extend my upper body on either side. That results in immediate pain. I don't need any more of that! I started the clearing my throat, coughing thing that comes with pleurisy. See, I don't blame everything on rsd. :-D
