I went to see an orthopeadic doc today for my coccyx injury. He was very nice. They took 12 different view extra's. Then when he was tell me about what he found he explained everything. I had arthritis in both hips and I have several spots on my tail bone that are shattered. He also says I have arthritis in the last lumbar disc. He wants to do an MRI to better see things. Then he was palpating my back and tailbone area. I cried so bad. It hurt so so so much. This injury happen 3 years ago. It should have healed by now. He kept asking me if I went to see anyone about it. I said I told my doc back home in PA and I told my doc here and they just blow me off and watch me sitting on guard and walking like I am 90. I told him the er treating me like a crack head. He said well we will get to the bottom of this. I told him that they gave me pain killers for it and that worked and I could function but that it just a temporary fix. like a bandaid. I want to know what is exactly wrong and what I or you can do about it. He looked very happy to hear someone say that. So I left still in tears and got my meds and now just chillin'. It hurt but it felt like I was getting somewhere and someone was actually listening to me. whew......
