she probably works seven days a week. It just so happens that her office rotation is only one day a week.
Yeah, I get that, and everyone I know in any kind of medicine has jawdroppingly crazy schedules, but still - if you're only available to office patients once a week, you're in the office on a consulting basis. Being there for them is what "primary" should (humanly) mean -- not just being the code number to which to assign the insurance cases. Calling her what she isn't (and making you take the consequences) doesn't serve anyone, including the doc.
I had one like that too, but I think he was trying to retire and still get paid.
Hivemind question--
My doctor just prescribed Lexapro for PMS (and maybe to help me sleep better). Anyone else take it? Their site is all about depression and anxiety disorder, which I don't think I have, but I am a worrier and do get all up in my head too much., so maybe...I just don't want to be taking more drugs than I need.
Um, I just downloaded a font called "Celexa."
Sorry, not large with the helpful.
I'm loving JZ's Miss Information routine.
I'm currently on travelocity, waiting for it to load, as the embassy scheduled our R&R flight as 24 hours to get back to the States. 4 hours to Frankfurt, then a 5 hour layover there. LIKE I'm going to do that with an 8-month-old, especially when there's a direct flight from here to the East Coast.
I'm taking Lexapro for depression. I think I did better on Celexa, frankly, but I haven't had any real problems with it. I guarantee you it does nothing to help me sleep, though YSideEffectsMV.
JZ was practicing her MissInformation in the car: "Did you know that the Chrysler Building is made entirely of Chryslers? Do you know which model Chryslers they used? Subarus and Mustangs! The capitol of Wyoming is Lansing, Michigan!" She's opted for a cheery Buffybot tone.
Hey! Miss Information was *my* schtick! (Or did she get the idea from me and I just forgot that she was going to do it?)
Lexapro can help with PMS; that's just not one of the conditions that it's officially approved for by the FDA. (That doesn't mean it doesn't work; it just means that the FDA requires all kinds of studies and data and jumping through hoops whenever a manufacturer wants to add a new indication to a drug's prescribing information.)
I take Celexa for depression, which is supposedly similar. Again, it does nothing to help me sleep except you know, lift the depression...
The Doc said it helps alleviate anxiety and if anxiety has been what keeps me awake, then that might be all that's needed. I am sceptical, but willing to take a shot.
I think she said on the board that she was going to steal the idea, and credit you.

That's better, then. I'd hate to have to kill her.
