    How to fix cracks in the medical system and VA

    Chapter 1: TLDR - Intro to Idiot gets Pissed We have all had or known people that have fallen through the cracks in medical care. Getting specialty care in the VAMC at times can be like picking fly shit out of pepper, you have to know how to be effective and it is tedious as hell. Orthopedics...

    The new and improved first ever night shift thread

    I was up for almost 30 hours straight with my back. I laid in the floor and bed, sit, stood and leaned with no pain relief in sight. In all fairness, @Copejunkie would rightfully and honestly call that another fair day of work for a Tuesday but I am not of that culture. :LOL: I do normally go to...

    Thanks! I am actually feeling relatively good this evening after some sleep. I learned some very important things about the VAMC system over the last day without sleep that I think our vets should know. Constructive things, not involving even the possibility one "conspiracy to commit" charge...

    I had to go to Urgent Care this morning because my back was killing me and I had a fall. All is well, some tramadol and steroid shots and I got some real relief. Back to ortho tomorrow ... I'm in the VA's no man land, ortho at my VA does not deal with the spine, so I start the process over and...

    In all fairness, my dad felt the same way when the forward pass became common.

    It's after midnight and I am still awake with no sleep in sight. I overdid it in physical therapy for my knee today.

    Yes, and the thing that draws the stank face from those that know me: I have never been arrested by civilian cops.

    I am in the middle of another VA meltdown, post OIG report if that helps. Been falling since 31DEC, my doc wouldn't put in x-ray orders for three weeks, finally got into ortho in March, had a CT scan that was supposed to be followed up by ortho in six weeks and I am still waiting ... been in PT...

    It's amazing to me, given the life I have led, that I have only been banned from an Orlando Red Roof Inn and a Mississippi Waffle House. Let's be kind and say that both were for dress code violations and I paid restitution.

    I really want to tell you that it will get better and easier. On a totally unrelated topic, do you like being lied to?
