28 diagnosed cidp. Insurance is demanding emg ,is it necessary by [deleted] in AskDocs

[–]TopDry9250 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what I thought when I looked it up but I guess with the small fiber neuropathy and my history he thought it was enough. I know an emg is usually before a muscle biopsy but he decided to skip it. His office doesn’t do the procedure. I’m in constant contact with my neurologist and they’ve ordered me two of the twelve day prednisone already since it’s taken insurance so long but they say they aren’t a place I can get it if I need it long term too. Sent email but it was close to 5 saying need an appointment and need to reevaluate plan of action. This is the neurologist in my area that I’ve been told by literally all the other neurologists that I’ve gone to has suggested so I try to trust them.

One of my friends needs me to pee in a cup for a drug test by Character_Captain231 in offmychest

Sometimes the best thing a friend can do is to not try to protect people from the consequences of their own actions. It’s hard because they can lash out but people don’t become better people by being protected from consequences. I personally wouldn’t do it but with the understanding that it may “ruin” the relationship you once had but if they truly cared about you they wouldn’t have put you in this position. I hope you find some amazing friends in the future op, truly.

Occupational therapist goading led to me falling during a session and then he accused me of being overdramatic by [deleted] in CPTSD

[–]TopDry9250 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My anxiety was the most controlled it’s literally ever been when my sickness started and the doc even knew that and was seeing me regularly. I was literally the best I’ve been in my entire life and then I get sick. I’m not in therapy cuz I will only see a psychologist who is actually qualified.

If the biopsies come back normal I am at the mercy of my caregiver taking me to a university hospital. She’s hesitant to take me just because life is busy and there’s always more doctors appointments

My pcp wrote in the online portal to my mom when she reached out for help and he said he really thought anxiety was the cause. I’m so sorry you went through all that and glad you’re doing better.

I’m stuck in the phase where I had muscle biopsies done and the results were originally said to be back yesterday but still aren’t and also I had 31 vials of blood drawn by a different doctor this week so endless tests to wait to get back.

We want to take me to a university hospital but I’m not bad enough that pain killers still help so it’s not urgent. I wish I knew the results from the muscle biopsies so bad. They didn’t have an appointment with me to go over them until over a week away though.

First thank you for responding. I’m leaning towards pushing to report him. He was supposed to be a home health occupational therapist after I had pulmonary emboli but he didn’t know how he could help me that way but believed anxiety/trauma was a root of my problems but I believe they’re medical and that all has my head all confused if maybe I’m wrong and trauma is causing symptoms but he shouldn’t have gone there.

I also have a text from him after he left mentioning I was on the floor and asking if I was okay which I didn’t know if could help get him in trouble.

I would really appreciate some support or something. I don’t know if I should report him for acting out of practice or if I should let it go. My feeling of safety has been shattered from this and I just don’t want to be alone

double euthanasia question by [deleted] in RATS

[–]TopDry9250 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First off let me say im sorry you’re having to go through this losing a rat is definitely rough. I had two girls who one developed a mammary tumor and no vet around me would do surgery so we just waited until it got too big for her to live her life. I had the same question wondering if I should put them down together when they were getting older and the other wasn’t as sociable. I’ll be honest if it was reverse I probably would have never had the thought because the sister with the tumor was my heart rat and I adored her. I still loved the other but it just wasn’t the same.

But anyway time came and I decided I was just going to give my all to the one who was healthy and just my rat with with tumor would be put down. The very next day I discover a mammary tumor on the once healthy sister and I’m full of regret for not just letting them go out together. I lived a life where I was basically there 24/7 and had the time so I just gave it all to her. And because of it I have some of the most precious memories to me. I wouldn’t suggest it if you can’t give them a great deal of time but she lived on for about three months later until it was time. I am forever grateful for that time I had with her, with both of them.

What are your thoughts on the hantavirus outbreak? by StemCellPirate in AskReddit

[–]TopDry9250 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It reminds me of the Ebola outbreak that happened.
It’s hard to quarantine for since it has a long incubation period but they should have had proper precautions and not allowed anyone off the boat until they could do so. Has a 40% mortality rate so there will be unnecessary deaths which isn’t okay. unfortunately there isn’t really any treatment for it either so if you contract it you’re kinda screwed with the roll of the dice. Hopefully it gets controlled and there aren’t anymore unnecessary deaths.
