2+ months later, and...well, my short-term disability just ran out, so now I get to go onto a "Family/Medical Leave"...unpaid, of course. My doctor is starting to seem a little sketchy, but he just doesn't remember part of my arm motion problem, straight out to the side, I can move it about 45 degrees, sometimes more, so I'm having my second EMG done on the 10th, and after that, an MRI. I'm guessing that will be in the ballpark of $600-700 out of my pocket for the 2 tests. I just need to get back in touch with human resources to find out what I have to pay per month (or per pay-period) to keep my medical benefits going.
All that money I had saved up for a rainy day will surely come in handy, the floodgates just broke.
