Hi
What you are going through is nuts. I hate hearing about the loop of Drs. you are in. Having been there and done that I would certainly get another opinion. Surgeons do surgery. Pain guys give shots. It is really frustrating. There are Drs. that look at overall health and posture etc. I have the name of one that is like that I never went to but he sounds great. Email if you want the name. You probably need to see the surgeon to get the ok for the test, perhaps that is what the PA is saying. I would definitely make another appointment and why wait a month? (oh I reread the post and I guess you did make one sooner) You have the right to make an appointment when you want to. I hope that things will work out for you and you can get on with more important activities in your life besides Dr. appointments.
Phylly
