Thanks everyone,
Today must be "receive crappy medical care day".
After pdoc, I go to gp's office as a walk in...wait 1 1/2 hours, which was fine...They call my name and I can barely walk into the exam room. The physician NEVER touched me. I did not have an exam gown on, which was fine. I asked to watch me rise froma chair & showed her where it was painful...She said "you need to go to the ER".

I HATE the ER. I ask why, she said "it could be x,y,z". I said I think it is a strain from what I lifted last week...and today I feel a little better than yesterday. She never checks my reflexes, if I feel things in my toes...nothing...If she is that concerned, then do some type of exam!!!!
So I asked her if she could give me some medication and if it does not dissipate within a few days, I will go to ER or ortho doc. SO she gives me some RXs...
I knew she was po'd, I also know that if she really thought I was THAT bad, she would have made me sign out AMA. But why not touch me, move me, make me do things to see what causes pain, test to see if I feel a pin prick in my legs?? What is up with this crappy medical care?
