I don't think so. She said, "well x-rays only show bones" Really because I didn't know that (idiot) What if it is ligament damage? I am not going to the dr 50 times to figure out what is is. He already knows it hurts he sent me for an x-ray now what is the next course of action. I don't need to see him again. I think I might just go to a hand specialist. I told you they are jerks. Did she honestly think that I was just going to say, "oh ok it's not broken thank you bye"??
In a way I wish it was broken because then I know the pain will eventually go away when it heals. But now I don't know what. I was emptying the dishwasher and I can't even hold a bunch of silverware with that hand. Am I just supposed to live like this for the rest of my life?? |
i would go see a specialist but take a copy of your x-ray but they still might do another one but it sounds like you need a ct are a cat-scan but like i said it all about money .i seen a show on t.v. the other night talking about doctor and test and they do test after test for the money were it should only take one are too ...to really find out whats wrong .. that like my daughter she sick for 2 month now and still dont know that's wrong she is all the time throwing up and a lot of pain in her stomach and once again they keep telling me to bring her back really am getting very mad .. we good luck with your finger
