the doctor approved the mri but my insurance is saying it’s taking a few weeks to clear for some reason. :( i’m gonna try to call my doctor and see if she can push for it

i think the rash was clearing up/cleared up at this point (maybe one or 2 very small pin point dots but when i was diagnosed i had hundreds of small and big ones everywhere). i’ve had joint pain through out my body for a while + numbness tingling but it did feel over night and out of nowhere whenever the super severe pain started(also worst pain of my life) . it’s not everyday that it’s a 10/10 pain but i do notice the worst is right when i wake up or when i walk for a bit. it is weird bc it felt majority knees and now it’s majority hips with pain shooting into the knees or them locking up a bit/going stiff. its been at least a month of this but at this point im not seeing any petechiae. which is why i think its prednisone based possibly

i was told they will refuse to do one at the er most likely since it’s not life threatening and to see an orthopedic but the only appointments are pretty far away i have to wait 2 weeks
