2 /5 Gretchen Havens: My family and I have never had a problem with the front desk staff or Drs, nps, or pas here until a few days ago june 30th i believe .. I came in with moderate to severe lower left back pain that at times wrapped around to my left overys are and felt like a severe menstrual cramp.
I seen Dr Roman.
Not sure if he was tired and just wanted to be done or having a bad day or what
But I told him how long Id been dealing with it everything Ive been trying to manage it with.
Maxing out tylenol and ibuprofren, using a tens pain machine, heat,ice, stretching, Epsom salt nothing was taking edge off.. my blood pressure was high he said he couldnt do any thing else but referred me to physical therapy and ordered an x-ray.. I left in pretty bad pain kept to doing my at home remedies. Did an x-ray the next day July 1sT.
heard back about the x-ray July 2nd. I believe was told there was a shadow of some sort in my pelvic area they didnt know what it was and mild arthritis in my lower back. He suggested a rehabilitation center for my back..
So here I am thinking mild arthritis cant be this bad (unless flare up?).. pain wasnt getting better. I knew there had to be something more going on.. went into trios e.r. yesterday 7-3-24 told that dr all this, blood pressure still elevated, come to find out I have kidney stones..
Thank God for that e.r. Dr going above,beyond and treatment plan.
Shame on the urgent care dr for not taking my vital signs into consideration and all my at home remedies..
