also found widespread arthritis. they tested for several types and got nothing, but xray showed spine and pelvis deteriorating. this is all they xrayed. they suggested she come home and get some pt.
she saw her pain guy today, but i haven't talked to her.

but we are both pretty cheesed at the way she was treated. she is on several psyche drugs, and i think they saw her as a drug seeker. no idea why they didn't call in a rheumie.
might send her back to see a rheumie, but will see what happens with the pain guy.

really not an acceptable answer for an old lady like me, let alone a 19 yo kid.
one more depressing trip through the old medical industrial complex.
