Yay for good health so far....the waiting game continues for my insurance.....so I am doing quite well considering.....and the fact that I am changing providers for PT, etc. really makes me happy. The Woodlands in genreral with my MD staff is good. Really. They are. Mel and Keith agree. Going to Houston may be hell for some things, but hey, this tiny area doesn't have it all, so we have to just cope. I have given up on past specialists. And since getting a Cigna EOB last week for a device for CP that was not covered, Dad and I are a tad ticked off at Memorial Hermann The Woodlands Outpatient Rehabilitatiion and the crap they put me through up till Ike hit.

If I go back to The Medical Center, I am going to use Health South, and Methoidist Hospital. With all the stuff I had to endure over the last 4 years, I think I owe me more now than ever. The sloppy care, office staff, blame game for me....patient care in general was not good. And those damn surveys literally say....we expect you to tell us we are excellent, but just in case you're not, you can contact patient relations, at ###-###-####.

What total idiots. And Mental Health insisted I beriend the Memorial Hermann staff, as a volunteer, and patient, because, in their words, "It's okay. Just do it. We'll be here." BS.

Since the bill is still in my name, I get to raise serious cain now. This is rediculous. I have been through it all, from cancelled sessions the day of appointments, to billing that was off, to "I am your friend first, PT second, and the grand finale, from a staff worker...."You are too close to your PT, so I am switching you to another one for a month. Don't get too close to her either."

If this is wrong in any way....and I believe it is......I plan to head to Health South and Methodist as soon as possible once the state approves me. I won't bother with a lawsuit, because these idiots and stupid girls just aren't worth it. As for the Mental Health idiots, they'll never see me again.

I'll hit the road out of state with CP/DID, and other health needs first. Keep in mind, this is the ONLY branch of Memorial Hermann to give me hell....no other branch has been so idiotic with me. And now at 33, for people to treat me so badly is always unacceptable, because I am not any younger. If this is a glance to the future, I'll stay away, thanks.

To me, once the entire health system gets re-vamped, I am going to look at stuff so critically.....and if I even sense wrong doing, I am out. My parents have done enough to last me a lifetime. I am stepping up as a self advocate. To me, if you are in the health industry any branch at all, and you mess up, you should be held fully responsible, not the patient whom you deem unfit. And that same staff member told me "You have to sign a contract for life with us. And no, we will not release your file because we want you here. Your file is now in archives."

Keep in mind....Stupid Girls and Idiot are by P!nk and Lisa Marie Presley, and I am ready to start kick boxing classes. Nuf said.

Today I danced my way to better health. Forget standard stuff in medical and mental health. I will never regret all that shizz, but I am never going to do it again knowing how stupid the people are. Idiots. I even get calls now regarding credit and debt.....and I am on edge. I don't own a CC....so why the hell they won't quit is beyond me. And why the idiots harass my parents for things is also uncalled for. The phone has been non stop since January. If it's not credit and debt people, it's the auto jerks. If it's not these people, it's medical and mental health morons....that we are no longer connected to. Boo hiss.

No more miss nice girl.....ever. If Austin thinks I am going to improve or be cured, they'd better read between the lines. CP and DID are here for life. TIny complications add up....and I deal. Dance, food, sleep. That's it.

Now to get my game on.....ciao!
