So I went to see an orthopedic doctor about trying to help straighten me out so I can walk better, and walked away a little disappointed. "You, you are a challenge", and "You are interesting" were the phrases used many times during this visit. It made me feel like back when I was younger, and doctors wanted other doctors to examine me due to the rareness of my disease. Basically I have three fixable problems in my legs (primarily in my hips, knees, and ankles). The issue is that I have all three messed up at same time, and they are all connected, so fixing one could cause the others to collapse making me worse off than I am. I am proportionately unproportionate as he said.
I could be worse off I know, but it still is kinda like a slap in the face when told they won't try anything. I don't wanna make myself worse, so i'll just accept that i am an Interesting challenge for now. Besides I've been told stuff would never happen before, and well look where I'm at now.
