Okay I must say it I am pissed!

Just as I was waking up this morning to the blaring noise of my hubby's alarm clock (which alone is annoying) I had to hear what will be coming up as a story on our local news at 10. What thing in your medicine cabinet can help your FM........for those of you who don't know, it is cough medicine...in specific two major ingredients in cough medicine, Dextromethorphan and Guaifenesin. First off, neither have shown any true help with FM symptoms (they think it may be a placebo effect in both experiments) and second you have to alter your life so drastically for them to work that it isn't worth it for some people like me. Heck you can't even take aspirin...ASPIRIN while on these therapies. No offense to Dr. Robert Bennett and the fine work he does up in Oregon, but it's just not worth it. While I am thrilled that my local TV station is giving some airtime to the cause of FM, that they may give out the wrong or erroneous information might scare me more than thrill me.
Other than that still no info on the CT scan....highly annoyed in that.

Update: 2:02 PM
Well I found out that the Radiologist has signed off on the CT results on Friday and my doctor should have had them either yesterday or Friday. Still I have no call!
What the heck is going on????? Here I go calling again! Maybe if I call my GP I might get some answers instead of calling my Rheumy! Here goes nothing!
