just don't know?????????????

hello world, haven't written in a long time, but i have problems all around, my back pain in caused by a bulging disk, in my low back s5L1 anyway my rhuemy sent me to a back surgeon, and he wants to do some kind of diskogram to see where that is where the pain is coming from, i am like excuse me you see the mri's and my backside is black and covered in blisters from using the heating pad, you asked me where it hurt, i told you why do another test to see it that is the point of pain, so he can charge me and medicare God knows how much money . i just don't know, but my rhuemy says that my back is what is keeping everything flared up, so i don't know what to do. 
   Life around it is about the same, my little jess is growing so fast, in the 5th grade, good grades, comes home crying if she makes a b, she is active in sports, she continues to go around the house singing, i think she just has music in her head all the time,, like her daddy, she is so special.
hope all my friends are doing well, lots of love to all.
