BROWNSVILLE GETS 3 NEW VA DOCTORS WITH FULL STAFFING

Today started with a great visit at Valley Regional.  Yes, there was a wait, but within reason I moved along.  I particularly liked the nurse practitioner triaged me and got the painkiller and CT scan going before we did all the paperwork.  Now it is possible because I was already in the system, they decided to formally do the paperwork after I was triaged. 

In the past I either got an antibiotic, or steroid, but not both.  Many people do not know but both properly applied act as a very effective painkiller. 

Yes, the CT scan showed a massive sinus infection.  But it did show the surgeon did fix the deviated septum.

EXCITING NEWS FROM THE BROWNSVILLE VA

The clinic is growing.  They have a medication dispenser.  Typically, a 10-day supply is provided as a bridge until the prescription can be filled.  They only have basic medications, not everything.

But then I took the antibiotic and steroid prescription to Walgreens, I expected to pay about $30.00. That was cheaper than going to Harlingen.  I asked how much they would be, and she said, "your VA insurance covers 100%."  I did not know the VA covers prescriptions at Walgreens. 

The VA has agreed to assign me a 3rd ENT surgeon because, the second refused to address my pain after three phone calls and then refused to work with me when because of Gabby Garcia and Estela Chavez-Vasquez, I could not make the appointment. I just wanted the appointment with the PA one day early. When I called, I was told no.  I explained what was happening and the receptionist made it clear it was not her problem.  So now the infection was left untreated and me suffering horrible pain because Gabriela Garcia and Estela Chaves-Vasquez played games.

The John Doe knows how it works.  He has been in court and watched defense attorneys say nothing when the court issues an arrest warrant with no bond for failure to appear.  In the federal lawsuit I show not once but twice these crack attorneys never gave John Doo notice to appear.  Had I not seen the notice of hearing online and got him there, he would have been arrested and held without bond until he plead guilty.  The federal judge will be asked to enjoin all Cameron County judges from this practice until the DA can show the defendant was actually given notice to appear.  If notice was given though counsel, then the defense attorney needs to swear under oath how they notified the defendant to appear, to include an email or text message sent.

If the medication works tonight, I should have a full day ahead of me moving the John Doe case forward.
