Ugg Suzi, how frustrating! When will we get a better health care system?!? Much ~ma to you, and hope it goes well this afternoon.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
ugh SuziQ. That's so unfair. I keep going back to a doctor I dislike because it seems like putting up with her rudeness is easier than finding a new doctor.
At the very least you'll be able to feed Joe.Very good point.
Suzi, I'm so sorry you're feeling lousy. I hope your doctor gives you the referral you deserve. I can't believe he just wanted to send you in to the ER.
I need more caffeine. My brain just read this top-of-page-quote:
Anybody can be a prop class clown.

I can't believe he just wanted to send you in to the ER.
Seriously. Been there, done that.
I called my health plan about changing doc's - which I can do - but it wouldn't be effective until October 1st, at the earliest. And I don't know either of the other docs who are in my area - but anyone has to be better than this joker. Snarl.
The one "good" thing - I am feeling better today. Still getting the episodes, but not as frequently and not as intense. Whatever.
Ugh on having to wait to change docs.
Annabel definitely has the right priorities.
That's what I think! Let us eat cake!
SuziQ - I would tell your health plan that you want another doctor sooner than October because you are concerned for the health of their bottom line. That do not think it is very cost effective (for you or them) to have a doctor who sends you to the ER instead of referring you, and you are doing this in order to help them make their bonus this year. If I were a healthins. bean counter, that would have the steam coming forth from my ears. Unless I am operating under utopian fantasies and now they actually WANT us to go to the ER instead?
HAH - I haz ENT and neuro referrals now. Fear me!!!
I agree Sox - I'm doing a bit of research instead of just grabbing a name out of the health plan directory. Once I know who I want, I'm going be one pushy bitch.
Laga, gee, I wonder what's on your mind. IJS!
Suzi. Be that pushy bitch! It's your health. Your paying into the system. Get what you need out of it, do NOT let them boss you around. Grrr. (sorry, lots of pent up animosity to HMO's and such).
I went to the gym. Not good. I can't use any of their aerobic machines for various reasons. The weight machines were ok, but I can't really use them for very long. I didn't sign up for anything because I don't know what to do yet.
Suzi, definitely be a pushy bitch. Suggesting going back to the ER after they found nothing is just crazy. You need a specialist.
