Thanks kneegeek friends for bringing me luck.
No sooner had I read your messages that the phone rang-- it was my primary care physician. He received the follow-up notes from my last OS visit; OS recommending another surgery to remove scar tissue. My PCP has never had a patient with this condition, so I explained some of the challenges of having someone other than an arthrofibrosis specialist try to treat it. He'll help me get a referral to an OS in CA for an evaluation. Then we'll go from there to see if there is anything that can be done to help me see Dr. S. We also discussed the referral for pain management that has gotten completely messed up.
About 15 minutes later the pain management dr called. I have an appointment with him on Thursday.
Then I wandered (crutched) out to the mailbox and found the authorization from my insurance co to see Dr. E for a second opinion. I called his nurse and made an appt for June 15.
Anyway, today was a productive day. Thanks again for all your support. There are many times when I honestly don't know what I would do without all of you.
Regards,
Jaci
