Yes more return BS

We received 30 returns in April alone. The usual for Walmart customers…people won’t sign for orders because they only wanted to steal them anyway, no longer wanted (not so bad I understand this occasionally), defective (always a complete lie). Of course the used, half returned, not complete, theft by the customer where Walmart only wants to give 20%.

I actually selected “return is different from the original item”. Because they did not return the same F’in item. I did not send out a used, dirty, pos of an item but I certainly got something like that back. I absolutely did not receive the item I sent out and/or the same can be said for “I did not receive this return”. Walmart changed the dispute to “un-sellable” and gave me only 20%.

Who takes a picture of a random item or some garbage and sends that to Walmart stating that’s what was returned so you can get the full refund?

I thought I read in here someone said they use the “I did not receive this return” and that always works for them. It seems like it doesn’t matter, it’s always 20% no matter what I select as the reason.

Dexamethasone Test Time?

I wrote a previous post about how the doctor who requested my test is already dismissive of everything I conveyed to her. At this point I have no trust in her, but will take the test she’s already ordered before moving on.

I see she wrote to take the pill for the Dex test at 10:00 pm. I’ve been reading so much about this and most articles say 11:00 pm with 8 am draw, but this could depend on lab.

I also looked up the lab where I am going (Quest) and they say 11:00 pm.

What time was successful for your results?

I hate to feel this way but I already feel she’s setting me up for failure. 😞

Hard to diagnose?

I’m sorry to read all the stories here. I’ve been having some issues over the last two years that I can’t put my finger on.

I thought it was thyroid related so got a new endo to evaluate me instead of my PCP. I did change my thyroid meds and the levels are normal (they were normal before)….but anyway. I came back with high cortisol.

Now, the new dr is going to do more testing, but she’s a real piece of work (that’s the nice way to say what I’m thinking). I’m going to let her run these tests then I’m getting someone new.

She won’t tell me anything, won’t talk to me about anything. States that high cortisol is normal and it fluctuates all the time and none of my symptoms relate to high cortisol.

I’m not saying I have Cushing’s, more tests are needed, but something is not right. I have debilitating stress for no reason, I gained 30 pounds in 9 months, burning muscles and tongue (def worse in the evening), fatigued, losing hair in wads. I went outside to do 15 min of yard work today and it felt like my body was shutting down. I was shaking and uncontrollably crying like I went into shock. I am so hot I’m barely wearing clothes. So hot I feel sick and that I may heat stroke out just going up and down stairs. There is no temperature regulation at all. Hypothyroid peeps should not be hot! I was actually diagnosed with a Pituitary tumor in my 20’s that was not an alarming size at the time, but hasn’t been revived in a few decades. I know that’s neither here at the moment, but I didn’t even get to mention that because I was dismissed immediately that none of my symptoms related to endocrinology.

My job is a high intensity, physical labor job and I’m lucky I haven’t lost it yet. It’s getting close though. The word Cushing’s was not discussed with my doctor. I was just trying to figure out on my own how I can lower my cortisol and I read about this disease.

Just to be dismissed before anything gets started is beyond me. Has this been hard for everyone to get diagnose? From reading in here it seems like people are struggling to get doctors to listen.
