The Medical Thread: We're experts on everything else; why not?

Consult today. First thing I asked about was the titanium rod breaking. He said they're flexible and if weight is put on it it'll break. No date has been set yet for surgery. Doctor's findings has to be sent to a utilization review for their ok(should be just a formality).
 
Good luck, it's really awful. I broke my leg two months ago but still deal with consequences. i can't walk a lot and it's really difficult for me as I used to go hiking a lot. I also take a lot of supplements that help me to soothe the pain. I've read a lot on Canadian Pharmacy Partnership site and chose which work best for me.

Ugh.

So something happened with my FSA account on the back end. I've been locked out of the online access/portal for about six weeks now. The message specifically says "For security reasons, you have been locked out of your account. Please call 877-xxx-xxxx.". I'm pretty sure it's a backend problem.

When I call the help line, they tell me to do a password reset. Well I go though, provide my password, security questions, etc., but when I hit "submit" the button clicks, but then stuff doesn't go anywhere. It just stays on the Pasword/security question screen. The IT help has no idea what to do at this point. Twice now they have submitted help tickets to their IT. Twice now I've been told that "IT will call me back in 3-5 days to follow up on this issue". Both times, no response from IT.

As of June 10th, my FSA card has been locked because I have not been able to submit a required E.o.B. form for the purchase of my $100 deductible for my Continuous Blood Glucose Monitor's sensors back in January. I'm gonna need to purchase another round of Insulin this weekend, and I'd rather have the $58 go on my FSA than come out of pocket, since any chance at getting that money back is gonna be a major pain in the arse.

At this point, I'm wondering if the account still has the full allotment of cash in it.

Just super frustrating to deal with.

Urg. Hope this worked out
 
3 months to the day and date since surgery. Doing the PT thing and feeling better. It's a long, slow process but I remember how I felt coming home 2 days after surgery. Still using a walker(my aluminum ball and chain), left leg was still weak before the second surgery and is even weaker after.Hoping to progress to using a cane sometime later this month.

Great you are feeling better. Slow and steady wins the race
 
OK so I woke up with a calf cramp 4 days ago. it sucked, but I massaged it out, and it relaxed, and I went back to sleep.

When I woke up in the morning, it still hurt. And in the 4 days since it has only gotten worse and worse, enough so now I can barely walk.

It doesn't feel injured, it just hurts like a Republican trying to do basic math.

What the hell did I do to my calf?

I'm not a doctor, only stayed at a Holiday Inn Express, but I'd consider getting checked out for a blood clot.
 
Yeah uno is right. A healthy 24 year old in my family dropped dead from a clot after ignoring leg pain for a few days

id call a nurse line or urgent care tonight to try and talk to someone
