I fell @ a friends and hurt myself, since my Dr. was looking after my back, he ignored my fall. 7 mths later I got him to MRI. It showed torn rotator cuffs, tendons torn on both shoulders. I just had surgery Apr.2./07 My fall was July 28/06.
The lawyer bit...due to not being able to live on $900.00 a mth.,
I had to tell my boss, friend that I had to sue his insurance. He took it personal and is now suing me for $13k. (My pays.)
He is just doing this to hurt me. He filed in the farthest court he could, knowing that I cannot drive, due to the fall. The 1st lawyer did not keep me up on correspondance, wrote letters without speaking to me, getting my surgeon furious, etc.
We did not click when he seemed to believe what the Ins. said, without asking me about anything. He stated things wrong that I had told him. This is the same with the doctor(s).
I am now looking for a "go get 'um, contingency, help me while we're going through this lawyer...and a Dr. that really listens.
Thanx

I am having one tomorrow for my sciatica/prolapsed disc problem, as the pain is unbearable at the moment, especially in the morning. I get up at 5 or 6 every morning in agony and take a handful of different pain killers and diazapam to loosen the muscles in my leg as they go into spasm. Then I have to walk around for an hour till they start to work. I have had physio and acupuncture and they have not worked.,...........

My wife suffers from persistent migraines. I mean, almost daily, frequent emergency room visits, the worst.

Over the last 15 years she's tried amost everything the neurology profession could think of, with no help.

I'm wondering: is there anything "new" out there that chronic migraine sufferers have had success with? Thanks.

I have been having pains in the right side of my head for the last 4-5 days. It is always in the same place, kind of above my ear and toward the front. It doesn't last long but when it happens it really hurts. I have taken Motrin for it and it usually helps. I am taking thyroid meds, but this pretty much just started and I have been on the Thy. meds for 4 years. I am not sure if I need to go to the doctor or not. My husband gets really freaked out about this kind of stuff, so I can't ask him what he thinks I should do. If it is a type of Migrain then I can handle that. I just want to know what is causing it. I get headaches alot, but not like this. Thanks for any info anyone can share.

I am the owner of a scrub store and currently the only product, other than our wonderful 100% cotton scrubs, that we sell are stethoscopes. What are you looking for in a scrub store. What other items would you be interested in? shoes, bags, socks - would you really buy this stuff??

saturday i was 75% through the SAT test when i got this shock of pain on the right side of my brain and all the words started to swell together and even now when i tilt my head i can still feel the pain i mean there's pain there now but it intenstifsys if i tilt my head to a certain degree. i'm fine as long as i don't bend over or think to hard or sneez or cough, there's still pain there if i don't do those things but it intensifys when i do those things.It feels like a bunch of liquiid moves to one spot of my brain and than shocks of pain. Could this be that i had a brain over load of too much english and math in one setting ? or did i just strain my brain? Should i go see a doctor? is this normal, is that suppose to happen and if so for how long?

My patch kinda hurts and just feels weird. My surgery was 2 years ago. I've had addominal swelling and now numbness in my left arm/chest area. Docs have done everything imaginable.

If you lose the most heat from the head so I would be warmer just wearing a winter hat and nothing else (completey naked) rather than a winter coat and pants and boots and gloves and scarf with no hat....
