Thats the odd part hes supposed to be one of the best - but a year of cortisone shots..and no relief

my insurance was maxed from my kidney surgey so I went and got the MRI 100% covered and oh look evidence...I need to stick with him now hopefully he can force my work comp claim back open

cortisone is for when they don't know how to treat the cause. -- nm - loosilu Nov 26, 15:03 3
- well at the time made sense they thought it was inflamation in the tendons...so we did 3 in the top of the ankle - Capstern Nov 26, 15:07 2
  - inflammation caused by what? if it keeps coming back, they're treating it wrong. -- nm - loosilu Nov 26, 15:08 1
    - Well now I know. Sigh. At this point we will see if comp will reopen the claim...they should - its degenrating and the MRI proves that and I will - Capstern Nov 26, 15:14
if you are getting a year of cortizone shots, he is not one of the best. nm -- nm - groiny Nov 26, 15:03 1
- yeah he's not. after about 3 shots in the same area it just doesn't work anymore. Get a new doctor. -- nm - Remlik Nov 26, 15:04
