Okay so I finally found a neurologists office in my area that specializes in migraines. (I've been all over the place around my area and then I've been to Thomas Jefferson-- I wouldn't send my worst enemy there-- I guess their really great if their first treatment plan works for you, but for the difficult ones they treat ya so bad until you can't take the abuse anymore) Anyways this place is supposed to be really good and I even convinced them to take me with a referal from my PCP instead of my neurologist because my neurologist is crazy and doesn't think I need to go anywhere else. So I'm so excited then they tell me that they need my records from my neurologist and then they will give me an appointment.. oh yeah and their waiting list is 6 months long.. I think thats torture enought but anyways then I call my neurologist and get the ball rolling with the records... OK that was like 5 weeks ago, my neurologist office uses an outside company to do their records and it's taking FOREVER so yeah today I called their company and cried.. yes cried to them for like 45 minutes. They don't care. I live in NJ/PA area and my records are in GA.. WHAT SENSE DOES THIS MAKE?>? Thank u all for listening I just needed to vent for a minute!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I've had them tell me I called into to cancel an appointment with them - when I was standing right there waiting to see them.
And with the records. It is honestly better to make sure you read them first. Because they write things in there that are completely incorrect or that show they have prejudice against you.
Take care, hon. It is incredibly frustrating - vent away!
Thanks and hope everyone has a nice day
