Ok so I was supposed to see Dr Garcia on Friday. I received a call from my agent that told that's not gonna happen. My worker's comp refused to pre-pay so I can't see him. Awesome. It is time I start looking into Lawyers etc. I'm starting my research right now. In the mean time I'm in touch with AIMIS. Sent them my info and the MRI. It's proven, trying to appeal to people's humanity and trying to be nice doesn't work as we all hope it would. It's sad what's becoming of this world where money and personal interests are more important than anyone's well being. Sad but truth. At least there's very nice people on this board still.

I am so sorry to hear that! I hear ya man. It's all about the almighty dollar, which is silly since overseas is by FAR cheaper!

Hey! Maybe one of us should go work for the insurance companies! LOL!

BTW, have you created a spinal signature? It will help us get a better picture of your spinal history in a glance and help us help you.

Yeah I have to get on the spinal signature. It is just that I've been so down so much going wrong plus the pain plus all the disappointments that I find it hard to get around to do it. I will give it a try tomorrow.

Get some rest, and remember you are not alone in this. You have a whole community of people out there rooting for you!

I dunno, did you hit save? I don't see it either. Try typing it out in a word file and saving it, that way you don't have to retype it. A bit less frustrating that way. Try these instructions: http://www.adrsupport.org/forums/f58...-health-11053/

I can see it on my user CP but it doesn't show on here. Weird.
