NOT ALL IN YOUR HEAD

I hate writing more about my medical issues but that is just part of my story right now. It turns out the pain isn't so mysterious. MRI's revealed there are issues with my spine which warrant seeing an othopedic specialist. I finally got to talk to a scheduler today but she has to verify our insurance will cover a visit to this particular office and doctor. As my PCP said to me Saturday before she left for a month's vacation, "We aren't finished with this yet." I'm not deeply concerned as I know it could be a lot worse than it is. I think my hope is now to be sure it is not caused by tuberculosis which has been my PCP's concern. Once that is settled, I can live with this and thank God that I am still very mobile walking miles at a time when the weather is nice plus fairly functional in the rest of life. I am truly grateful.
