Violations of civil rights page 35: Thanks to those who took care of my knee
I wish to thank the doctors and physical therapists who took care of my knee after my fall. It seems to be as good as before, but according to the MRI wasn't that great before.
Unfortunately, there were some complications that had nothing to do with the ones who provided the care.
First, I learned that a cortisone shot spiked my glucose level to 207, but i took extra cinnamon and it soon stabilized. But, I was able to use the knee for the physical therapy.
2. Exertion causes chest pains as it always has since 1/10/89 when i was injured. But one needs a knee to get from one place to another if one can't ' ride.' The exercises were down laying down and the therapist deep massage for some and others were isometric.
3. I had been in the reception area of the physical therapy place but didn't realize how pervasive the chemicals and cleaning products were back in the wide open area where the therapy took place. The first day i was in a private room and the biggest problem was the perfuming lotion. This burn nasal and lungs and eyes. The same reason I was sent home twice by federal workers compensation and had hospital chaplaincy class waived at seminary. Its hard for one who doesn't have this disability to realize its just like putting lungs and sinus and eyes in a fire is the sensation.
4. I still thought I'd be able to get through this by only going 2 times a week; but when i was placed in the wide opens area with many patients and staff and lotions, etc it exponentially increased and was very painful. Soon, what so often has occurred over the last 2 decades, my sinus bled and then got infected. So a week of antibiotics was needed. There is no way to be an a ' normal' public area and not suffer from the scents used. Usually formaldehyde is included in almost all cleaning products, etc.
5. I had to miss therapy and got better and tried it again only to have a recurrence.
6. In the midst of all this, i had to get some blood work done for an upcoming doctor appointment and when i got the results it showed a 2 decades old pattern of abnormalities that get worse on exposures.
7. Currently, I see no way of continuing physical therapy without aggravating my already work related accepted diagnoses of occupational asthma, pnuemonitis ( toxic pneumonia) and inhalation of toxic fumes with bronchiospams plus some secondary issues pertaining to ABG needle sticks. other secondary /tertiary claims are pending on other body organs and long term use of medications for the accepted conditions, etc.
IN NO WAY AM I COMPLAINING ABOUT THE GOOD CARE RECEIVED. But this does illustrates how difficult it is to have one with such a disability where standard medical care and just being in a public area can affect one who is chemically sensitive whether it be the lungs or any other body part affected.
8. I will continue the exercises at home as I can rest and do them in a more perfume free environment.
9. I have posted this publicly and not named anyone because: there are those who are listed in complaints that will try and make too much of my physical therapy being interrupted and not wish it to be for a 22+ years of my 22+ years of medically documented events as to what occurs on exposures.
I will gladly recommend the medical professionals who cared for me to any and all as most do not have my disability to deal with. You will receive excellent care for your muscular/skeletal injuries. Your grateful patient, Linda Joy Adams

ACCIDENT REPORT
Last Monday and Tuesday i went for medical appts related to my OWCP accepted conditions and conditions pending on unprocessed secondary claims. There is a cumulative effect on inflaming exposures which are barely noticeable by the general public. One of the accepted conditions listed in the OWCP file is pneumonitis which resulted from my initial injury. Wednesday, 1/27/2011, I grabbed some cereal with milk for a quick meal.I didn't realize the brand was different than those we usually have and I can tolerate. Whether i breath in or ingest low levels of certain chemicals, there is an inflammatory reaction which has been called pneumonitis for the respiratory system. After a few bites, sores appeared in my mouth and burning sensation in respiratory and digestive system. The process is; burning sensation, inflammation, swelling and then if the exposure continues bleeding and bacterial infections take hold in some areas. In the lungs, there is fluid build up and blood tests diagnosis of leukopenia have been done in the past when the exposure never ceased as when i tried to work post 1/10/89. I then read Natural Flavoring on outside of TOTAL blueberry cereal.

Xanodyne agrees to withdraw propoxyphene from the U.S. market
Xanodyne agrees to withdraw propoxyphene from the U.S. market: "- Sent using Google Toolbar" bravo! I had a doctor prescribe this pain killer and since i have many adverse reactions to especially the inert ingredients; i called the phamaceutical company who refused to allow me access even to the the required prescription insert. i did complain! And chose to use an alternative pain killer, cayenne pepper in hot milk which has often been more effective for me.
