Re: found a new dr. worried shell tell me tough shit like the last oneFrom: Maghan (anonymous@obgyn.net)Thu Sep 27 15:52:23 2007
Heavenlygarcia, You took the words right out of my mouth. I have been to six different doctors and just today went to see the sixth and "newest" one. I was referred to him by someone in my support group after I told this person that my 5th doc wanted me to have a hyst now. I'm 22 no kids. I have stage IV endo, 2 laps, bad experience w/ Lupron. Crazy bad pain. So when this lady said, He's good go see him. I did as told. The first visit was good, short but I thought he understood what it was like to hurt all the time and he said he had a plan. and then today was the visit from hell. He didn't come in to talk to me before his nurse told me to take off all my clothes and then when he did come in he didn't recall any of the things we spoke about last week even though I SAW him write everything in my chart. That leads me to believe he didn't even review my case before seeing me. then he asked me all the questions he'd asked lastweek. Then the exam came and even with me saying that hurts really bad and crying he was still ramming the ultrasound probe around inside me. then he told me to get dressed and come back in two weeks w/o even a word of what his alleged plan was. I'm beginning to think he didn't have one and is just trying to leech out as much of my insurance money as he can. Why do I not matter to doctors? Why does my pain not matter? Why does my shitty quality of life not matter? Why don't they care that I can't do ANYTHING AT ALL?
