Meh

Hopefully the pain specialist can figure out why I've been having all these new and interesting (she said sarcastically) pains and spasms over the last year, especially in the last couple of weeks. Hopefully it's not autonomic dysfunction resulting from the Wreck, as my GP thinks.

Edit:Turns out, Medicaid doesn't recognize the need for pain management. The place that called me said they would give me their "special self-pay rate" of $325 per visit, due in full at the time of my visit. Oh, and I get to drive 45 miles one-way in a van that maybe gets 15 miles to the gallon, with gas at $3.59 per gallon. Did I mention I'm only getting $672 per month in federal supplemental income -- assuming, of course, that the government doesn't default?

Guess who's not going to get pain management.
