Hoping tomorrow brings a step closer

I visited the chiropractor again today.  I have not had any relief after my several visits.  I do give him credit that he was 40% sure I wouldn't.  He IS excited to show me how to use the ultrasound machine that my dad sent me yesterday.  I don't have another appt until Saturday.  One thing to note - he said if I got relief from the machine, then he would be sure it was tarsal tunnel that was the problem.  If I do NOT get relief from it, then Raynaud's is the problem.  That was his opinion of course, and I don't know how that would factor in with a neuropathy or peripheral vascular disease.

Tomorrow is my appt with the orthopedic surgeon - sure hoping for definitive results via an MRI.  I picked up more test results, consultation notes, from my family doctor today on my way home.  I feel like I'm ready for the appt tomorrow, other than - maybe - do I need to fill out paperwork ahead of time?!  I'll need to look in my folder to see if I have paperwork, and get it done later today, if so.

Sure hoping tomorrow brings me closer to resolution.
