Disappointed &mistrusting of docFrom: ale (anonymous@obgyn.net)Tue, 17 Jul 2001 00:50:51 -0500 (CDT)
I am so anxious and upset. I hope someone has some input for me. I am 37 weeks. About 2 weeks ago, the subject of elective induction (with cytotec) came up between my doc and I. He said we'd talk at next appt because he had to go deliver. **There is no medical reason for me to induce unless being GBS+ is a reason. When I came to see him today, he couldn't see me because he had to go deliver. He quickly poked his head in the door and told me that he scheduled me for an induction in exactly one week!! I have not yet agreed to be induced, and he has not yet checked my cervix or condition of baby. **What really bothers me is that he doesn't have any available time to see me before the induction (it will be 3 weeks since I've seen him by the time I'm induced). He never even consulted me for this decision! I feel so mistrusting of him. His nurse said he chose that date because he is taking the later half of the next week off. He has an overly full practice and the times I've been "bumped" because he had to go deliver, there is no room to reschedule me. I feel I don't even want to go back to him. I know he frequently induces the majority of his patients but I'm concerned about my baby being ready at only 38 weeks. I'm completely healthy except for the positive GBS. And I don't know if it's possible to switch doctors now so I can at least be seen these last few weeks of my pregnancy. Any help/advice... please!!!
