Thanks all.. I see her (MD) every EVERY month. I think putting the queries off until the next appointment at least buys me this time. Maybe.. maybe SHE was having a worse day than me??? I mean, she had NO CLUE as to "why" my pelvis was out of place (hello? I've been disabled for 18 1/2 years..this happens all the time..muscles pull bones out of place, that's why she writes the authorizations for physical therapy) She was quite clear in her expectation, and her denial... and merely "shrugged" when I explained I can't use public transportation. I don't know what I am hoping for.. I don't know... but avoidance definitely seems the best I can do right now...
