You have the correct information, your doc does not. Either argue him into oblivion or ignore him and do what you know is correct for you. I choose the ignore path. Smile and agree with him and do the right thing.
Take a deep breath, imagine a sunset off the coast of Kona. Smile and let the air out slowly. Works for me in these situations.  |
See, I CAN make myself clear! Just not to doctors, who apparently speak some form of pseudo english fake latinesque language designed to confuse and obscure.
I have tried the "argue into oblivion" plan. I am now left with the smile and nod option. It is good advice.
Apparently the powers that be have heard my rant, and not an hour ago, the Nurse of BigCity Dr. called me (finally), and huh, funny enough, once I explained the charts and what was going on SHE AGREED WITH ME. While I am relieved that we are now working together (without the Dr's pesky interference), Is it wrong of me to wish they had just taken the time to listen to me in the first place?
Do I really have to go through 3 weeks of phone calls, emails, and arguments after every 3 month appointment? Jeeeze! (yes, this is not the first time)
Thanks for the support, guys. Unless you, your spouse, or your child has it...YOU JUST DON'T KNOW.
And Steamfan261.....Thanks, you are a RIOT!!! ( The smell of burning feathers still lingers from my first endo.......)
