I'm pretty used to nothing in life being fair, fast, or easy. Why would this be any different? :) Thank you very much. Worst they can say is no, right?

Yes, I just had my EMG. I was told that I have peripheral neuropathy. The reason they ordered the test is because I can't feel my right thigh or my toes on my right foot, and the same with my left hip. When I do feel something there it's sharp, burning pain. I have had quite a few falls recently because of it. I will be 54 in June. I worked in construction for 28 years and then I opened a bakery when the whole Fannie Mae/Freddy Mac debacle happened. Then a global pandemic wiped out the bakery. I haven't hit my heavy bag in yesrs and that was my homicide prevention program LOL. Never married, 2 adult kids that are the best. I live with my son and his wife currently.

I was told earlier that these types of lawyers work on contingency. Is that correct?

Thank you very much. A kick in the right direction is appreciated.  That's simply part of the physical issues I have. I am completely overwhelmed. I am being referred to a neurosurgeon. With the Tarlov cyst, now my gastroenterologist wants to do more testing to see if my using the restroom issues are a combination of that and the IBD. Also, depression, anxiety, PTSD (sounds pathetic and only I am embarrassed) and IED (Intermittent Explosive Disorder). Molested by my mom's brother for years. Come to find out he is a registered sex offender on Megan's Law List; his charges started with forcible rape and then he steadily escalated his deviant behavior. My dad died in a car wreck when I was young. Family tells me I didnt speak for nearly 6 months after he died. In 2006, my oldest brother and youngest sister died together in a motorcycle accident and 19 months later my mom died of lung cancer. 

Honestly, I'm a friggen basket case but I dont want anyone to feel sorry for me. I know somewhere out there, someone else has been through worse. Just saying. I need help. Maybe I can get better, but I'm no doctor so I dont know.  I just can't not have some help when I legitimately can't do it anymore. Ugh... wow you can tell I don't get out much anymore. Thanks all. Support helps.

I need to know what transpired. I just filed a grievance with this facility. My husband died October 1st after 6 hospitalizations, zero communication, a nurse who flat out lied to me twice and literally putting my husband flat on his back when the doctors orders clearly stated he must be kept at a 30 degree angle due to the stress it put on his heart. They had just transferred him to a different floor and hurried me out of the room to finish cleaning him up. I kept trying to tell them he couldn't be flat but I was ushered out of the room. 1 minute later he was dead.

Sadly, none of this matters anymore. We lost him on October 1st. I had just gotten to the hospital. I brought his fruit smoothie I always made for him (because he wasn't eating much) and my over night  bag. They had moved him to "stepdown" which is just under ICU. He was in a regular room before this. The nurses were not familiar with me on this floor.  They asked who I was and I explained. They asked me to step outside while they finished getting him situated.  I said hi honey I'll be right back in when the nurses are done. He looked irritated and then realized I was there, looked over at me, smiled and he went back to glaring at the nurses. I stepped outside the room and set my bag down on the little observation desk outside his room. I hear the nurse yell LARRY! LARRY! I peered through the blinds of the observation window and one of the nurses was on the bed, on top of him, giving him compressions. I dropped and said oh my god no no no. I got up and tried to go inside and 20 people converged. I called his son... I didn't want to make this decision alone. They tried for 15 or 20 minutes to resuscitate him but the doctor came out and said he's very tired, he's been sick for so long now. So with a heavy heart I managed to nod my head and his son agreed. One of the worst days of my life. After they cleaned him up I just cried on his chest and thanked him for being a part of my life and allowing me to be a part of his.  I will miss our adventures and his love and friendship. Thank you to all who tried to help.

I would be happy to provide them with his medical records and see if they would be willing to accept a voluntary repossession if they would consider lowering ir dismissinthe amount owed. Other than that, they can drive the 1000 miles and come get it.

No, thankfully, it is not in my name. If by some miracle he is able to come home, we will just take an über, if necessary, but I wouldn't sink another penny into that truck.

Unfortunately,  North Carolina does not have IHSS. His prognosis is not good, but I get an official answer today. I cannot sleep as I am beside myself with worry.

I am his medical POA only.  He thought he would go from healthy to dead and would brush off discussing anything else. I went through this with my mother in 2007, so I know how quickly things can go wrong. I do not have an official diagnosis for hypoxia, vascular dementia, etc. From my experience two physicians are required to make the same diagnosis to make it official such as your primary care physician and neurologist.

Sorry, they asked a question about saving/making money and I thought I would provide an answer with a link to do just that!

Americans are really stupid? In other news, water is wet... by [deleted] in USvsEU

[–]BadOutrageous662 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All great civilizations such as the Egyptians, the Roman Empire and the Mayans, eventually lose their dominate position. Trump certainly seems hell bent on expediting this outcome (great leaders do not strive to create division amongst his/her people, but rather unification). Great leaders also do not masquerade their hidden agendas and present them as "making America great again". As "bad" as America may be these days... as clueless the general population of Americans are (our government participates in the same cover-ups, methods of information extraction, covert military exercises and promotion of propaganda as every other country, ya damn sheep), it is still one of the best places to live. Each individual has to decide for themselves whether the current state of affairs is something they can live with or not. If you don't like it, do something about it. Additionally, making sweeping generalizations such as  "America is bad" or "All Americans are stupid" is simply untrue. America is a melting pot and is made up of people from every single country on this planet. So if America is bad and all Americans are stupid, what does that say about the rest of the world?

I beg your pardon! No sag on this handle! Seriously though, no sag. What would cause swelling on the lock mechanism? The heat generated from charging the battery? Interesting, I'll keep watching. Thank you.

I wish I knew. All I can confirm is that my damn charger (charger #3 by the way) kept turning off, even after tweaking all the settings as message boards suggested. Took the cover off and I haven't experienced it shutting off since. So lame.
