At least you have orders....I STILL keep hearing any day....any day. It has been what almost 7 weeks???? Usually I don't have dramatic moments but this week I just feel my nerves on edge about it.
You are STILL waiting for orders?! Ughhh. I am so sorry-I know how frustrating that is. Hopefully you hear something soon!!!

And it turns out I'm only 36! For some reason, I thought I was 36 all this past year and that I was turning 37. So I'm thinking I should say I'm 35 this year since I skipped it altogether!
Happy birthday!!!
BTW I did the same thing one year - I think it was 31 to 32??? Anyhow, I managed to skip one year altogether and live another one twice!

I thought it was just me! I've never admitted to anyone that I have to stop and do the math when someone asks how old I am because I just don't bother to remember from day to day!

Took DH to the spine specialist yesterday. He is super worried about some serious problems and instructs DH to remain out of work until we figure out what is going on.
Had blood work done yesterday. Most of the same that was done in July but with a few other things tossed in to be thorough.
Had flexion and extension x-rays done yesterday to verify stability. I'm hoping we don't hear back from the dr on those today -- if we hear back it will be to get in to a surgeon ASAP.
I'm calling to schedule him for another two MRI's today -- had one last week (day before our wedding ) and one the week before. Need to have these two done to start and may be going back in for another one or two depending on those results.
I'm also calling a neurologist to get him seen there too. The dr last night called that office to make sure we are gotten in ASAP.
The spine specialist is great. He is being very thorough and talking through his logic with us but not jumping to conclusions or trying to scare us. I appreciate that he took the time to go over everything with us last night and that he let us know what he was trying to rule out with different tests.
It is hard sitting there (especially just a week after our wedding) hearing things like multiple sclerosis, neurological disorders, auto-immune disorders and permanent paralysis. These are just possibilities. Some more treatable than others. It is also possible it is just out of alignment stuff and the nerves are being pinched.
The insurance is being a pain still. DH hasn't been paid since July and we're really running out of emergency funds. If the disability claim isn't sorted out in the next week or two, I just don't know what we'll do.
I am so angry with the insurance people right now. Looking at the tests and all the treatments he's been in for should be good enough for them. But it isn't
He really can't return to work right now and the dr says if he does it could cause irreversible damage.

Thank you Maky, Missy and DeeJay! We have only 3 months to turn everything around and high tail it over there. I'm still hoping I will get to keep my job but probably won't know till the end of November. It is all a bit stressful but we wanted this so really I can't complain. I'm so excitied I could pop right now. We have been waiting almost 3 months to find out.

Thanks to all for the kind words and a wonderful place to come cry when I have to be strong IRL.
Still waiting to hear from the spine specialist on the x-rays BUT the blood work all came back normal. The mixed-blessing of seeing the lab results on line at the same time the doctor can see them is that I'm able to scan through them all and see that everything checked falls in normal ranges but I'm not able to completely know for sure what it means until the doctor reviews it and gets back to me. To my untrained brain, it looks like great news! All of the stuff in the blood the doctor was concerned about finding (signs of muscle infections, organ issues, autoimmune diseases etc) is well within normal ranges.
So, for now, I'm going to take this as good and just focus on getting the other stuff done and paperwork filed as needed.
The next two MRI's are scheduled for tomorrow. Those are with contrast. We should (hopefully) know by the end of this week if he needs to get in for an MRI of his brain. Hoping to have all of those done to take images and radiology reports along with to the neurologist.
Scary times though.
He fell in the kitchen night before last when his leg muscles just gave out. Then yesterday he couldn't get out of bed or stand up from sitting in a chair without help.
