MissConstrue<p>Ya know, one of the things that makes me crazy is how hard it is to get pain management in this country. Benzos they hand out like candy, but ask for a 5mg hydrocodone scrip and suddenly you’re treated like a junkie. In the past, when xrayed I get questions like “what the hell happened?” And I say “being a young female gymnast in the 1970s”. This time, I just loaded up this clip and said “I did this from 6 until college, there is almost no bone in my body I have not broken, I have lupus and rheumatoid arthritis, can I just have some long term pain management please?” <br>The answer was still no. Ima have to put together a clip showing floor, bars and beam. I think young doctors have no idea how death defying GenX was. </p><p>( bonus “have you ever seen that from a girl” comments from the Olympics commentator.)</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZYPcdj_wn4" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">youtube.com/watch?v=NZYPcdj_wn</span><span class="invisible">4</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mefi.social/tags/rant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>rant</span></a> <a href="https://mefi.social/tags/korbutflip" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>korbutflip</span></a> <a href="https://mefi.social/tags/gymnastics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gymnastics</span></a> <a href="https://mefi.social/tags/grrr" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>grrr</span></a></p>
