[CALLA]

Hey there all!!



I have to ask for opinions........



My family doctor decided that he wanted to send me to see a Neurosurgeon. My original surgeon moved away.



I have been having a really hard time lately in regards to my low back pain, and "new" right sided leg pain, and stiffness that is just NOT going away. No matter what I do!!



Anyways, so he decided that he was convinced there is something going on that a radiologist could have missed and that a NS would be able to help with. He sent away the referral and the doctor who he reffered me to wrote this letter and faxed it back to my doctor.."upon reviewing the MRI report, I do not feel surgical intervention is needed, so I will not see this patient. Thank you for the referral."



WHAT IS THAT!!!! AM I OVER-REACTING OR WHAT?? I JUST THOUGHT THAT MOST DOCTORS WOULD DO THIER OWN TEST AND EXAMS BEFORE THEY KNEW WHAT PATH THEY WERE GOING TO TAKE!!! ALL I WANT IS SOMEONE TO TELL ME WHAT IS GOING ON!!!!



Ugh........................................NOW WHAT?



Thanx everyone, I just wanted to hear some advice...and ask for some help!!!



Take care, Calla
