I wish I could find a doctor that wants to find out what’s actually wrong with me instead of recommending prescriptions to address the symptoms. I’m so tired of being recommended ibuprofen for debilitating pain. Tired of relaying my medical history to a new doctor and getting the same furrowed brow and shrugging shoulders I get every time. Tired of having so-called medical professionals ask why I need a cane if I’m able to walk down their clinic hallway without it. When will someone fucking help me?

However, post surgery, it is important to be extra careful and take certain precautions like avoiding heavy lifting activities, proper medications, taking good care of the stitches and more. People who have undergone scoliosis treatment in Ahmedabad are advised to take some preventive measures. This helps them to recover fast and avoid any type of post surgical injury that can happen because of lack of care.

A minor piece of advice from a Healthcare worker, listen to the reviews on emergency rooms before you ever have to go to one.

As someone who just went to the ER today, I'm glad I knew what I was getting into. The big hospital in town has been known to make people wait for over 24 hours before even moved to Triage, which for those who don't know? Is the first stage after being checked in. This is where they take your vitals/urine sample/and ask you basic questions on what's been going on. Literally the one I went to today? 15 minutes till triage. We were there a total of like 2.5 hours. People who very nice. The other hospital? A family member had to go to via ambulance. Took us 4 hours just for a nurse to look in his room and tell us he could be seen. And this is before greed took over and they fired their good nurses. And I'm talking a shit ton. Like 30% of their nurses. (Maybe not that much, I'm kinda outta it right now and I'm not looking up statistics for privacy.)

Next thing is my pcp is apart of the same organization as the ER I went to. So I didn't have to do the shitty intake stuff too. So that was nice. They also had all my previous x rays.

In short, you will eventually have to go to an ER in your area *eventually.* Please, please do your research and weigh your options. Also, always, always when you move somewhere establish a new primary care doctor. Because when things happen, they are a much cheaper option (in USA) to follow up with rather than the ER. They will also help refer you to the places you need to go. When you get hurt, having places to turn to that you know you can rely on is so, so important and makes the process so much easier. When you're hurt, you're going to be exhausted. Having the quickest path to recovery/diagnosis is so important. Because there are many things the ER cannot diagnose you for. Viruses and the like, broken bones, easy as pie for them. But deeper problems? Not so much. Make sure you have a support system ready just in case.

Also if you live in the US, your specialists/pcp NEED to see you within 3 years to keep you considered an active patient. So if you can't afford two times a year or even once a year? Go back every two years for them to check in on you. This will keep you active and not have to go through the new patient process again (because insurance sucks.) Re-establishing care after those 3 years means they have to consider you a new patient and the appointment can take months to get to. The best option I had when I established my pcp when I moved here was 3 months out. The next best was 9 months. No I'm not kidding. Every, and i mean *every* other pcp in town were at capacity and couldn't take new patients. Set up your pcp because you never know what the area around you is experiencing.

my tailbone pain has been really bad the past few days--tylenol and ibuprofen help a little but sitting, even on my cushion, is painful. so is lying down and occasionally just standing or walking (if you are wondering what position that leaves pain free, the answer is none). the level of pain is not unbearable itself but I find it really distressing regardless. it makes me panicky and feel like I'm about to cry. I think it's because I had months in 2019 and 2020 when the pain first started where I was dismissed and no one took my level of distress seriously, and then the pandemic happened just as I got into the pain clinic and all my appointments and procedures got cancelled. so it felt like it would be unbearable forever which I did not tolerate very well. but when the pain got worse at law school I had a whole system of doctors and specialists I could go to. and now the pain is getting worse again when I don't have a physical therapist or even a pcp. so it is hard not to panic and feel like I will be in pain forever without a solution. but that isn't true and even if it takes time there are solutions (physical therapy, going back on certain meds, seeing my old spine doctor again). it's just hard to focus on solutions when I'm panicking.
