oh boy, get to see the Nurse Practioner that called me a liar, in the am
seems my family doctor is out, no one is saying why or if she'll be back : (been having back pain for over a month now and nothings helped (heat, ointments, ice, back stretches, can't take antiinflamorties because I have ulcers)
anyway couple weeks ago when I ran out of Effexor and had just changed Pdoc's but then got a call saying he didn't accept Medicaid...I was out of Effexor and having bad withdrawal, ex Pdoc said nope can't help you unless I see, soonest appt was in a month!! so I call my family DR, find out she's not in, NP gets on phone I explain it all to her
(I ended up at the ER, only place that would help me)
Her response, "Mental health would not do that to you" in other words I lied
I gave her phone #'s of My T and Intensive Case Manager, told her they would verify it...she refused to help me or even give me an appt.so now I have to work with this women in the morning
why will she bother listening to me this time?
why bother going?
futilegot the feeling, I'm going to be dismissed...you know the depressive it's all in her head
this pain just keeps getting worse and with the damned Medicaid so many doctors don't take it
plus there's other medical probs; excessive thirst, freq. urination, blurred vision
yeah I know sounds like type 2 Diabetestype 2 isn't that dangerous and it is probably is all in my head
I'VE JUST HAD ENOUGH
