Doctors Just Annoy Me Sometimes

So my GP is a nut on Fibromyalgia (hence forth called Fibro). He has been one of the leading doctors about finding out what causes it and what to do for it let alone diagnosis. He seems a bit stuck on the Fibro and doesn’t seem to understand that the little pain I have from the Fibro is covered up from the DDD pain. So he wanted me to see this Fibro specialist. As most know who have Fibro there are points that when touched will let the doctor know if you have Fibro or not and how bad. I had an intern poke at me first. Ok not too bad. Then the specialist came in. OH MY GODDDDD! I finally got fed up with what he was doing to the back to elbow the sucker! Yes I elbowed him after fair warning that enough was enough.
The day after I am in a flare up. BTW he didn’t know what I meant by “flare up”. It bothers me a bit when I know more than the specialist.
So his answer to all the back pain from the DDD was to treat the Fibro pain. (now remember I don’t really have that much Fibro pain because of the DDD pain masking it (I guess). So he write out a script for Lyrica. Yeah a new drug just approved by the FDA this summer for Fibro. Now I am all for getting rid of the pain but how is that going to help the DDD before “IT” gets so bad that nothing can be done and I can’t walk any more??????
Really all this Lyrica does is deaden the nerves so you don’t feel pain. So how does the body know there is something wrong if it can’t feel pain????? To me pain is a warning from the body that there is something wrong and it needs to be fixed if at all possible. Masking the pain just seems wrong.

Anyway I haven’t decided if I am going back or even going to try this Lyrica. I am uncomfortable about it since it is used for seizures. It also makes one tired and sleepy of which I don’t need to be more of.

Anyway I was hot after coming out of that office and called my GP. He finally got the message that I need to see a Nero Surgeon for the DDD and is setting that up.

Updates to come as they happen.

Other Opposition to the Frosts

So while doing some research on Wicca I come accross a book we have had for awhile called “Witches, True encounters with Wicca, Wizards, Covens, Cults, and Magick” by Hans Holzer

In it he writes a chapter on Wicca (more on that later in another post) and various other chapters on different topics. One is on Witch Wars. Now he doesn’t write about many. A few minor ones I think mosty to fill the chapter, one about Tim Zell, but the main one that takes up most of the chapter was one concerning the Frost and Herman Slater on page 233. It talks about it being the fiercest war between witches which started in 1973. It started with a newsletter from Herman Slater printer on “Friends of the Craft” staionary. Calling the Witches Bible “witch crap” “He suggested that that the reader buy a copyof the book, rread it it and then burn it”
Herman Slater sent Hans Holzer copied of all correspondence concerning his controversy over the Frost’s book.
It became fairly nasty with Gavin Frost sending a letter to Slater with a curse. “In our musings, the coven elders decided that a minor hex was appropriate response to your recent letter. If you have the power, the hex will be returned to us; if not, some unfortunate occurrences will befall you and your loved ones. We are not, of the group that sends undefined hexes, sohere is what you can expect. First, in the quiet of the night you will notice a pain in the chest. Then a fuzziness of vision will occur. The inability to hold your hands still will be a signal that the hex is working. P.S. There is an unfortunate side effect to this hex. If you should have heterosexual intercourse, there will be a premature ejaculation. We do appoligize for this; somehow it is inseparable fromt he rest of the package. As a dog returns to its vomit, go back to your cellar under the traitor’s shop and call on Beelzebub or any other two-bit god or goddess you wish. We have arranged a hex in such a manner that it will gradually worsen.” Then it goes on to tell how to remove the curse.
The chapter also mentions an Alice Frost and an Emily Frost of which I have not researched as to who these two may be.

It seems that some of the other things I have read about the Frosts throwing hexes and having a history of violence are being confirmed more and more.
