I have been in my head since I received that message from my neurologist’s nurse about the necessity to see a specialist. I have a clear idea of the two phone calls that I need to make an order to make this miscommunication problem go away.
I have talked it over with my Mom incessantly since I received the message. I think this just all makes me nervous!!!
I guess that I just can’t get over the fact that this new nurse doesn’t know my 21+ year history with having MS in the same health system! That’s how I came up with my workaround. I am just going to change the doctor who prescribes my medical supplies.
It’s really no big deal, but I keep getting in and out of my head and that seems to make me nervous! But the thing that has calmed me the most is how calm my Mom is about this! She assures me that I know my body and I have known it for 21+ years!
This is all startling to me because I have not been in this situation before where the people responsible for signing off on things for my medical benefit have retired. My previous neurologist and his nurse just handled me getting my medical supplies on a monthly basis like clockwork and I didn’t know that I had to do anything! Now, that all changes but I think I have figured it out! I will know more tomorrow.
