***BIG NEWS*** & can someone give advice?From: katie (anonymous@obgyn.net)Thu, 25 Jan 2001 12:50:25 -0600 (CST)
I don't know if any of you have read my previous posts, but I suspected I had PCOS but hadn't been diagnosed yet. I went to the doctor today, and told her I wanted a straight answer once and for all. She wasn't my usual doctor, so I had to go through all the symptoms, everything... She looked through my file and she said: "You went to see a gynaecologist in 1994?" I said: "Yes, but she just told me it was a hormone imbalance. My mum was with me (I was only 14 at the time) and she can back me up". So my doctor said:"But it's here, in her letter, that she diagnosed you with PCOS in 1994!!!" So I've had it all this time (7 years). It's gone untreated. And nobody told me. I feel so violated. I have completely lost faith in our health service. So... what do I do now? I really want to complain, but I'm not sure how to our to whom. can anyone suggest my next course of action. On Monday I am getting my blood taken again to do Glucose tests and LH/FSH. She is also putting me in for an ultrasound (FINALLY!). I just can't shake this feeling that Ive been wronged somehow. Am I being silly? What do I do???
