Angry and confused! Sorry very long :(From: Diane (anonymous@obgyn.net)Wed, 4 Apr 2001 17:53:27 -0500 (CDT)
I went to my endoc. mon, he said I was doing great and to keep doing what I am doing. BUT he wanted me to take 1000mgs two times a day once in morning and once at night. I have been taking gluc 500mgs 4 times a day, breaf-lunch-supper and bedtime and have been doing great. He said that was the wrong way and need to take twice a day only. I tried to tell him I get sick,and get sicker each time I try , am fearful I might not be able to take the gluc. anymore if I continue doing that. Well decided to try and again! I got sick when I took the second dose of the pills . I was so sick I almost passed out and had the runs for about 3 hrs and could keep no food and even water in me it was so scary. A friend said I look white as a sheet and looked terrible. I called the office and talk to someone about the problem and to give a message to doctor. Took me until today to feel somewhat ok. After that I took my pills the usually way 4 times a day and have no problems and I feel good. Got a call from the his nurse today and he wanted me to keep trying! just cut the dose and do again, WELL it took me 6 months to get up to 4 pills and not going to drop my pills down again! and then get that sick again. I told the nurse NO! it made me too sick and I was not going to lose all the progress I have made. He also does not believe in doing any tests to see how the gluc is doing ,saying you can't tell how you are doing and don't worry about it! I think I need to find a new doctor, he has been in and out fast and not listening to me at my visits and seems to be getting worse, I am very upset with this matter. I have enough refill right now not to worry if he dumps me. But I need to really find someone I can talk to, a doctor who will take the time to listen to me and help work out a safe plan to beat this illness and not just blow me off and speed off. I don't know if I am over reacting over this but I feel so scared to go back to how bad I was before, now that I am doing so good. Don't understand why he wants to rock the boat, first he says I am doing the right thing and then he wants to play around with my pills just for the heck of it. I will not be mistreated and ignored again in my treatment , I want a partner in healing not a god who thinks what is right and not to bother my pretty head about it. I was so scared when I was that sick and for him to not even listen to me and to ignore how sick I was and to insist I keep doing what made me so sick, like I was a lab rat or something and not a real person. Sorry this was so long.
