Drs DO make mistakes

[Norm reynolds]

Hi
It been some time and let me tell you I have been throw a lot since April
When I last talked to you I was told that I was a diabetic and has to much Iron in my blood
And liver cancer But then they went to sure. Every test they did in Einstein hospital came back normal yet these Drs claimed that there was a lot of problems with me
Well last month I had enough and found a new primary Dr witch had me see a new Blood Dr in Frankford hospital
Witch worked out great because his office was next door to the surgeon who removed my Gail Bladder 9years ago When I had that done they had a hard time because my liver was attached to my Gail Bladder
It was because of this I was told 9 years ago when blood work done after showed as fatty liver but it was nothing more that scar tissue
So when the Dr that took over from my old Dr did blood work it showed up I hard as I tried to tell them it was scar tissue they would not listen. Also they kept telling me that my feet going numb was all in my head
Ok so this past Monday the blood Dr from Frankford hospital called me and told me all was normal Blood Iron Normal NOT a diabetic and NO cancer what is showing is the scar tissue He also told me that the meds that they had me on for diabetes WILL cause my feet to get numb and at 500 mg It might be another few months before that all clears up it is getting better and also I never should have been on that med in the fist place I was NOT a diabetic so I had all my medical records transferred to the new primary Dr
And today we find out that when the Dr who replaced my old Dr did the blood work the lab has my name BUT NOT MY SS # come to find out the problems they kept telling me that I had was some one else NOT ME part of me is so pissed and the other part of me is just happy that I am fine thank god I went to see another Dr Thanks Frank ( flyingGnx)
The only good thing that came out of this is I lost weight Back in April I was at 238 and today I am at 190
Have been doing a lot of walking and in the beginning with my feet numb it was hard as hell in a lot of pain but I did 1-2 miles a day then last week I got a 7 speed schwinn cruiser bicycle My wife is not to happy with that she is afraid with my head injury I will fall off I did get a helmet and I live a block from penny pack park so I mainly ride in the park and having a lot of fun with it this bike looks old school I cant not tell you how many time I hear great bike it is like driving a 57 chevy hell to day I went 5 miles on it and tonight I walked a mile All I can say is I am Glad that this nightmare is over
Sorry for the long post just wanted to let you know how things worked out
