''I am 81 years old, and today I told Dr. Madi Al-Haj that when he eventually arrives up above, as all mortals do (he is still young, and there is plenty of time until 120), I, and behind me a long line of grateful patients whose lives he has changed, will be waiting for him with an enormous bouquet of flowers. There are no words to describe this wonderful person and doctor. ❤️

I returned to the rut and even more than that and suddenly about a year later my right hand would not give me rest swelling 3 times on the left side, turning pale, circumcision, numbness pains that only God knows how much I suffered I started a process of tests and rounds of doctors A puncture, a steroid injection that paralyzed me more, opiates, and the multitude of tests and radiations, guess what? I was diagnosed with Tenisalvo For a year I would arrive at every possible emergency room in the country screaming in pain See me every possible doctor. for 9.5 years!!!! I passed every possible test Mri × 7 eng × 8 ct × 8 cta × 3 Doppler × 4 electrodes for spine and brain and what not... All the tests came out normal. The diagnoses I received from doctors over the years were: Tennis elbow, inflammation, inflammation, Middle East disease But I will never forget the day I came to the orthopedist in Kofah And I cried to him and said: Please take this hand off me The hand that supports me (I tattoo and pierce) And he looked at me in the eyes of a calf and said: "Girl, I suggest you go to a psychiatrist - you've been through quite a trauma. You're psychosomatic. You're addicted to painkillers. Get out of here" This is the first time I went out into the corridor and I cried, I cried my life out because no one believed me, it hurt me more than my physical pain. I took a short break from doctors but the pain didn't stop And I decided to keep fighting and find out what I have. After millions of private doctors (with this money I could already buy the Jeep of my dreams) I was sent to the nerve reconstruction department in Ichilov This was the first time I had heard of TOS syndrome They explained to me that it sounds like my complaints are reminiscent of the syndrome, but let's go through another series of tests, of course they also came out normal. They convened a committee for me and the committee said, pathologically everything is normal, let's do a clinical examination, they raised my hands up and the hand started to really shake and then it hit me again "You don't need to shake your hand with force, we understand that there is a problem" "Look, in terms of all the tests you performed, everything is normal. You don't have TOS, but if there is degenerative deterioration over the years, come to us" I felt humiliated. I continued to go to private doctors, some of whom, by the way, determined that I must have CRPS... how could I not... after all, they hadn't determined it for me yet. One day I picked up the phone to the doctor he sold, he heard me and in the same phone call he said. Dr. Madi El Haj "Call now and make an appointment. If I needed a doctor to operate on me, it's only him" I hesitated, what can he change after 20293839393 doctors. I arrived in Jerusalem far from Haifa. I opened the door and met an angel, both times I sat down with him he asked: "Do you want me to look at the binders I brought from all the years or do you want me to look at you, because what is interesting is you and not what they wrote" I knew I was in good hands, I felt. After a short test Dr. Maddy diagnosed 2 problems, ulnar nerve entrapment in the elbow area and TOS and that's without the tests he sent me to! Last September I underwent surgery to release the ulnar nerve in the hope that it would prevent TOS surgery. For 4 months, I was treated in circuits with various types of physical therapy, but unfortunately it did not help, so TOS surgery was scheduled. Just two weeks ago I had the TOS surgery On which I may expand later after a full recovery. But I want to tell all my group members in full and with confidence! There has never been and never will be a doctor like Maddy Caring, caring, patient and most importantly human! And next to him stands no less than the angel Sofia Anastasia who reassured me and took care of me during every examination and was 100% dedicated I know that my rehabilitation process is long and maybe the hardest part, but from now on I am grateful to the two people without whom I would probably continue to live in a world of suffering. So if you've come this far, thank you for spending your time reading and if you're pre-surgery - take it easy. You are in good hands🤍
