ceilidh - 2010-01-28 7:01 AMMorning all. Bill, I am glad you got a diagnosis. Nerve damage sucks. But it is amazing how your body can compensate. I have proof.
I don't have an opinion on the doc. I sent one a bill one time for my time because I waited for 2 hours but haven't not paid for a diagnosis, even if rushed. However, It ain't right to be a slacker especially if you are a professional.

I have 2 1/2 M for the month.. I'll send you some miles. They aren't free, though.

Later folks. off to the Dr for me, too.
Icky doctor visits! Hope it's nothing too serious--just a checkup maybe? we don't need any more gouhlies sick!! Robin-I might need some of those miles too, so don't sell them ALL to Bill! My shin splints have been acting up and I am waaaay behind in my half mary training plan. I don't think I'm going to make it through 6+ more miles in the next few days. Not without another flare anyway. Plus I was sick yesterday and didn't do any workout at all. (Is that a sad enough story to warant some free miles? Pretty please with sugar on top??)


Watch out Ann(e) requires expensive rum to be bribed


Well Honey, I could very easily be bribed with something that is most certainly free.


A neck rub? Innocent


Is that what you 19 year old kids are calling it now a days? Would that qualify me for my cougar card?


Meeeeeoooooooowwwwwwwwww!

I will let you call it whatever you want!


Honey I don't think cougar's actually meow. I am not a fan of small cats, big cats, sure, cougars, snow leopards, tigers.

wgraves7582 - 2010-01-28 8:31 AM So Ghoulies I have been thinking about my first sports doctor appointment and his diagnosis of arthritis.

I have a HSA medical plan and know I will be getting a bill from him for the balance and I am thinking of sending him the bill back with a letter explaining that I don't feel obligated to pay for his services because his diagnosis was rushed and not even close to what the problem was.

Basically explain to him that in these economic times that he wasted my time and I have since had to pay $100 in co-pays to get a proper diagnosis he was capable of obtaining.

Anyone ever done anything like that to a doctor?

It is customer service after all and if he had bad service or a bad product would he not expect better.

What say yee Ghoulies?


Free consult from the ortho surgeon in the office next to me.  He recommended that you write a polite and professional letter to doc #1 explaining that you believe that you should not bear any financial liability for the missed diagnosis.  Don't call him a *bad* doc. Docs will pass on billing for mistakes (and every doc makes them.)  If he still sends the bill, don't pay.  It will go from his office to collections.  When collections contacts you, explain your position.  If collections claims you still have to pay (sometimes they will waive, depending on the circumstance), then decide if you want to fight it or cave and pay.  And fyi, he's a doc and he's done it.

How's that workin' out for you since Kurt Cobain is dead and they broke up in 1994?

Do you have some sort of time travel machine you aren't telling us all about?
If he does I think he needs to share. I need to go to a violent femmes concert again.


Seriously, I'd like to go back to the day after I graduated high school please!

Do you have an extra ticket for the concert?
I'm sure I could come up with one! Do you like them? It's weird--I am embrassed to listen to any of their songs with my 13 year old in the car--but I was never embarassed when I listened wth my parents in the car! Weird, huh?


I have Add It Up and Kiss Of on my iPod.

I listened to them all the time in HS, along with Depeche Mode. I had 2nd row center seats to a DM concert but got grounded and couldn't go. Can I take the time machine back so I can go to that concert?
Only if you take me! I loved DM too. I spent a couple hours on itunes the other day trying to decide which album(s) to buy--all my old school stuff is on tapes.


I have tons of Depeche Mode songs on my Ipod.

Did you buy stuff from iTunes? I could copy my Cd's and send you, you could just load them instead!
Really? That would be great. What a giver!! No-I never got to hit the "buy" button.

Aaahhh, now THAT is more like it, Bill.  Tongue out

The video on overuse injuries was pretty good.  It is just the first part, but had some good stuff.  The guy is a doctor (surgeon) and a triathlete.

Thanks Kim. I think that pic was from about mile 5 or 6, so I was still feeling fast at that point.

And Ann - I don't think there's a camera lens in the world that wouldn't crack under the glare coming off my Norwegian torso-complexion if I had my shirt off

You live in sunny southern California. How is it that you do not have a tan? I suppose I could come out and lay on the beach with you if I must.

Agree. OaG, AaG.  BUT, I would accept a nice bottle of Far Niente or Caymus.

Or, posting shirtless pics.
