UTTER FAIL

[cindylouwho]

The doctor visits were utter FAIL.  FML. 

The neuro [he is the 3rd one I have seen] has referred me off to a 4th one.  Seriously.  And he gave me the worlds smallest prescription, so I am NOT HAPPY.

Then I had the regular dr.  Well I would have, but she was home sick, so I saw some other dr.  He at least took my word about the sinus infection and gave me antibiotics and refilled the 2 medications I needed refilling and sent me to get a blood test to see if my vitamin d level was low again.  [it was so low 6 months ago, it was barely registering]

I have to go to a meeting later for my part time job.  It is a waste of time.  I've been there so long I could RUN the meeting myself.  I do get paid for being there and fed, but I'd rather just get my materials and go home.  But I was sick for the last 2 meetings so I kind of have to go, that and I need the money.  And free dinner.

And when I got home I found Rascal had pooed on the floor.  

But I had turkey bacon and chocolate biscuits for lunch so that was good.  I also foresee a nap in my future.

This. You have no idea how many doctors I saw for my chronic pain until I put my foot down and said, look, I cannot live like this. It is not depression, it is not "in my head", I am in fucking pain, that's why I'm depressed and I cannot continue on this way.

If they do need to refer you elsewhere, have them refer you to someone "higher up" in the profession, like a headache specialist, pain management specialist, etc.

That is what he did, I wasn't clear earlier. I was tired and in pain and in a pissy mood b/c I really wanted to see my primary dr today and talk to her. But this is a new place, with a neuro/pain specialist person so hopefully he can help me. I pray.
