Says there's nothing he can do
I actually get him admitting he can't solve the problem and maybe another specialist can (it's not ideal, but I understand that bodies are complicated and we don't always know how they work) but he's a pain specialist, shouldn't he be still working to fix the pain part??? It's not like you can turn this one in and get another body that might work better. So frustrating, ita. I wish you relief but first I wish you respite from the pain. And relief.
I was just talking to a friend who runs longdistancevoter.org, and if anyone would like to do grantwriting for them for no pay (volunteering!) I'm sure it would be a good experience! (they can afford nothing.)
For dessert, I made homemade lavender syrup and mixed it with sugar and sour cream, and it all went on top of angel food cake. Fear me.
Coincidentally, I had a Lavender Collins in Bend tonight that was made with lavender syrup. It was yum and the perfect drink for a sunny summer day.
Argh ita! Your pain specialist is a PAIN. Can you ask your migraine specialist for a rec for a new one?
I have no cake, but I do have lavender. Dana, can you share the recipe for the lavender syrup?
megan, could you do a quick translation check? the rugby boys are going to a tournament in Montreal, and want the team motto "Everything in Excess" on the jerseys in french. I think it would be "Tout à la excès" or possibly ""Tout de excès"? any thoughts?
Old Spice Guy and Fabio have been doing Twitter responses all day. Shenanigans!
Perhaps you should contact Oliver Sacks?
Oh please don't - according to 2 completely unconnected sources (1 fellow neurologist and 1 ex-patient) he's a great writer but a TERRIBLE doctor. You ever notice how his books are all about incurable cases? That's because he's not very good at helping people get better.
damn.

This kind of makes me want to bust out the Monopoly board.

No shit. That makes it a whole different game. I can see it causing more fights to break out than Risk played that way.
