Hi, I have been in a bad situation with a prominent HMO for 7 years now. They operated and gave me a new knee made out of the Metal-Titanium type back in 2010. In the 5th month of Recovery, I had a very bad fall, Black Ice, and was told that everything would get back to normal, just bad Bruising, and now 3.5 years later it hurts constantly and developed Poly-Neruoarthpy in both lower legs and in my Feet mainly less than a year after the operation. My feet hurt extremely bad, and I really have better luck with my shoes on 24/7. I have had 2 major slips in Bathtub Showers, and now my neck and back, shoulder hurt and I now spend most of my time in Bed. These Dr s. just said that I would just have to live with it and this is only the latest of many Traumas that plague me and they have had me on Methadone for 7 years plus 160 Oxycodone 5mgs. every 2 weeks after promising me to put me on MS-Contin after I lowered my dose of Methadone to 40to 60mgs./day then Re-Nigged and kept me on this Methadone which has never helped with all the symptoms that I endure daily. I also suffer from Diverticulitis, and my Appendix Ruptured some time ago and almost died from Peritonitis. I started my Adult life by a group of Hoodlums who, at the age of 21 was beaten so badly by 4 guys with Tire Irons after a Concert in Dallas, Tx. after seeing the band Genesis . I had 5 major re-constructive surgeries throughout the 1980 s. They gave me a very small chance of living to my family because of the TBI, Nose knocked off, and a Hole in my Head just above the Eyebrow and completely crushed Ant. & Post. Sinus Cavities. My right shoulder was injured, a specialist fixed it with a 40% dis-Ability for life. The Nerves in my face are dying off slowly and have lost Teeth from that as well. Frank O. Thanks!
