Hi..
it sure does make one upset..suppose we've all had several like
this.. but i struck it lucky yesterday and found one that actually
cares and can see im in pain, where as the others thought I to needed
to see a physco...oh they just play god at our expense.
Im going for another lap and someother things...next week or the week
after have to wait to monday to find out for sure. But I sure havn't
got my hopes up..last one lasted one week no pain.
Take care all
Angela
