mogilvas: I too have decided to lay off this site (and others like the "bad ones") for a while, in fact I haven't been here for 2-3 weeks. Okay, I know something is wrong, I have been told on two occasions sep. by 9 months after full workup by *** specialists that I don't have it. So there is something but not ***, I need to focus on other things and deal with them. It may be neuro or musculoskeletal, but it is not that which I dread. I'm waiting to see a hand specialist re RSI,etc. maybe a pain clinic, but the waiting lists are long and I don't have any personal contacts with these people to speed things up. If the pain, aching and twitching is under control, I feel so much better--I just can't get my fam. doc. to take it seriously enough to start pulling some strings, and he won't prescribe moderately strong painkillers for some personal reason--that is the only thing that helps (plus the clonazepam). I may threaten to quit my job as a radiologist ( in a town that needs 8 but has 3--maybe that will light the proverbial "fire under the a**")!
