It's a chilly day with dark clouds. It's been a busy week so I'm feeling a bit tired- a home day. Yesterday I took my mom to PT/OT. Then it was errands both before and after dinner including a trip to the supermarket.

I need to make an appointment with the ear/nose/throat doc my PCP recommended. The x-rays were a total bust. I have had sinus polyps that have been slowly growing over a couple of decades now and have previously shown up on x-rays but the radiologist at this imaging place insisted there was nothing and simply recommend a CT scan follow-up. Same with my back- yes to arthritis in my lower back, no arthritis supposedly with my mid and upper back. No logic to any of this.

My RA test came back negative, so I don't know if this is sereonegative RA or some other type of arthritis like psoriasic since I'm a bit prone to getting eczema-like rashes. I still need to find a local rheumatologist who takes my HMO. One local doc retired for health reasons and three of them moved their practices up-county to inconvenient locations.
