A great song that I haven't heard in quite a while comes to mind…
"Despite all my rage, I'm still just a rat in a cage"…
But really, I'm much more like a hamster on its spinning wheel.
6 doctors:
2 in the Emergency Room in Alabama
1 General Practitioner
1 Urologist
1 Colo-Rectal
1 Orthopedic
6 tests:
2 CT scans (with and without contrast)
1 ultrasound
1 X-Ray
1 MRI
1 blood work array
Today we learn it’s a hernia from the general surgeon. Who determines this with a simple physical exam! (And 4 of the 6 doctors preformed one in the past as well!)
Surgery is set for August 2
He'll need more blood work before that
He'll need 1 appointment to meet with the anesthesiologist
And there still is a separate center of pain as well in his hip joint, different than the center of pain touched upon today, so back to the ortho tomorrow, just in case it’s a tendon too…
