[QUOTE="slsh, post: 180685, member: 8"] Busy - she obviously (in my humble opinion) needs a much better workup both for the rapid deterioration of the spine as well as the mental status changes. Is she on blood-thinning medications? While all those pain killers could be the root cause for the mental status changes, if her INR/pro-time is elevated again, I'd be concerned about TIA/stroke/bleeding in the brain too. I'd point out to her that while PCP may be "nice", she's not doing a whole lot to proactively manage the health issues. Three hospitalizations in 3 months? Definitely time to see a new doctor in my humble opinion. [/QUOTE]
