Day 28
- I was discharged from home PT yesterday. He didn’t measure my flexion (as he’d said he would) presumably bc it was clear I had regressed after two long car trips
- Started outpatient PT. Measured flexion at 41 R and 50something L, the lowest yet. She said that the OS, who I see Thursday, would recommend urgency in working my bend regardless of swelling still present. Mentioned MUA. She did show me some massage techniques that helped get my quads to stop guarding so tightly. Definitely bendier at the end (not measured).
- Once again struggling to get pain meds, which both PT and PA have told me to take before PT. First the pharmacy said I didn’t have prior authorization. Now that I have that, pharmacy says state law won’t let them fill it until a date 22 days post previous fill of a 1-week supply. Medical assistant in ortho dept confirmed this is BS. I believe it’s actually the terms of CVS’s settlement with the state AG, as interpreted by idiots. So advice to anyone in Massachusetts: get your meds filled anywhere but CVS.
