I am the kindest, most giving person to work with and usually (okay always) have undercut myself in compensation in every profession. Big fault of mine. But I am tired of healthcare professionals attempting to take advantage of patients with flattery. Times HAVE changed. Adapt.

multicenter, cross-sectional study of 1526 adult Behcets patients from Egyptian rheumatology centers shows CNS, DVT, and GI tract involvement is higher in males, while the joint dz and disease activity were increased in females. buff.ly/2WrPZ49

Holy crap... NO. THANK YOU! He’s not much of a straw user anyways, but you may have just saved us from a hospital trip, seizures, and unnecessary medical bills and toll on his health. 🙏🏼 #Celiac #CeliacDisease #Straws

For profit ‘pain blog’ asked for “my opinion in major mistakes in managing #chronicpain.” This constitutes WORK for me & clinic was “less interested in compensation as it is for readers.” Went on to imply that because I’m a ‘reader’ too asking for fair $=wrong. #DisabilityRights

Update: I did not leave a message for @MassageEnvy & told them I’d be unable to talk last night as I was at the hospital all evening. They called while I was there even though I DID NOT leave my name or number. Not cool. Today “no managers are in.” Isn’t that convenient?!

@chellech @MassageEnvy My bank is fully aware of the issue and ready take action. I am also alerting the Better Business Bureau, & potentially disability rights organizations because of how I believe they took advantage of my situation when I was hospitalized for 2+ months etc etc.

Want to know how @MassageEnvy ‘donated to arthritis’?! By making my life hell! I’ve not set foot in a branch in more than 3 yrs, closed my account, they over-charged me while I was in hospital. They refunded $ which proves guilt. NOW they just charged me $770 out of NO WHERE.

@MassageEnvy As a disabled American on a fixed income, this is NOT money I have. My checking account is now grotesquely overdrawn. That was money that was meant to get me to the doctor today and buy my groceries.

“We don’t have managers in until 3pm and they’re the only ones who can handle issues like this, and no we don’t have a national phone number that can handle it.” Hey @MassageEnvy, do you make it a practice to try and take advantage of past #disabled customers?!

It’s only Monday and already I’ve given an impassioned speech with tears streaming down my face to a judgemental doctor. Let’s just say he is not up to the task of managing my care.

Hello all 🤗 I’m doing better today. I’ve slept most of today. The ER looked up my OHSU rheum chart before entering my room, so they had my latest notes from my team 🙏🏼. They effectively treated my pain to stop the bad cycle I was in & talked to my rheumy to continue her plan🙏🏼

If only there was an ER that would come to my bed and treat me... because I’ll be damned if I’m getting outta my bed. Also, asking for a friend... how many days is too many days of toughing out the ER?
