Choices: My gut knows that it is just going to be a longer than usual healing time. That EVERYTHING has been inflamed and moved and stretched and torqued, and its going to take some gentle patience for everything to settle back down. I know this. I trust this. Todays massage is part of that gentle, patient healing. Meanwhile, Marika, who is an RN and skeptical about alternative treatments, would like me to go to a real doctor to get an epidural for the pain and to find out if something else is going on. I assume Ill need an MRI before anyone will give me the epidural so: My integrative medicine doctor is happy to send me for the MRI. I also have the name of a specialist in physical medicine and also a great diagnostician at Barrow NeuroSpine with MRI onsite. And I have a $2000. deductible, and I have not been working during all of this. Im thinking, by the time I get an appointment, get an MRI, etc., Ill probably be sitting and standing with minimal discomfort. (Which needs to be by Friday, because Im doing another live presentation.) And that the MRI wont show anything abnormal. But what if Im wrong? Should I go for the MRI just to be sure? This is the same dilemma I had when Laddy was suddenly so sick and they suggested doing an ultrasound to be sure. I chose NOT to have the ultrasound. I didnt need the confirmation. I knew it was cancer and that it was time.
