thoughts...usually with attitude...
I know what you mean, actually the Dr.'s aren't the ones that we mostly deal with. After you see them, it is the nurses that do everything else. I have an appointment on Friday, NOT looking forward to it, but I gotta go. Been a really lousy week here, Dr. put me on new meds that have made me really sick.....they are either going to kill me, or cure me I guess. Not sure which will come first though. I wanted to go see my Mom this summer, but that isn't going to happen not the way I am feeling today. Just no way could I get couped up on a plane for six hours. Yikes.
Libby, I'm glad that you were able to get your meds. It's great to find people that are willing to work for you.
And remember, just because you're paranoid doesn't mean no one is out to get you.
nea--damn, i wish your meds really did what medicines are supposed to do! but i do know that sometimes it's trial & error...don't give up! there is something out there to help you!
mary--it was a great feeling to find that my oldest dr from when i was first diagnosed was there for me!!
More times than I care to remember, I've told doctors what all three of us needed. I can't really blame some of them because of the case load they had.
I hope the giving of the meds went well, and I hope you just keep feeling better every day!!!
Now get me something for my cough. hahahahaha
Nurses, physios, receptionists all play a big role. I have been in hospital for 2 months I would have never gotten out if it hadn't been for all of them.
So... if a neurologist gets neurotic by treating neurotics which neurologist would the newly neurotic neurologist go to?
LOL @ SJ.
Don't get me started on doctors and nurses that have their heads up their asses...
I must be a bitch, the doc comes in and she always is in a hurry to get out to her next patient. I tell her slow down hoss, I paid for this apt so you might as well get comfy cuz if we talk about the weather I'm getting my half an hour that I've been waiting 3 f'ing hours for and that I have paid for out the @$$.
I also make her give me any shots I need AND take my blood pressure and tempature. She hates me sometimes
And they call it medical "practice" for a reason. They are just expermenting on all of us the creeps.
bte--you're right, the dr has hundreds of people to remember, of which you are only ONE!
burfica--i'm done with my 3 days of iv' hopefully the prednisone i still hafta take for 12 days will help too...
sj--a nephrologist?
summer--i absolutely hate what you have to go through! it sounds so painful!that's the one thing i don't have with ms, is pain...unless i fall down...
alekx--man, i admire you..you do get your money's worth! hopefully they know what they're doing!!
You are the ONLY person who is working your medical case 24 hours a day. So you have to do just what you did: insist on what you need. Good for you!
tan lucy--it's nice to know i have friends who are with me on this...certain wimpy-ass guys don't realize 'the squeaky wheel gets the grease'...i don't have to be a BITCH about it!
