Re: Re: Good news/ not good news

It's hard to tell the difference between passive-aggressive and passive. Perhaps

you see avoidance for other reasons. Maybe a relationship professional or

therapist is in order?

back -- I find that hard to believe. And I think any GI is capable of at least

doing a scope, which he really REALLY needs.

write a rx that day but that he MUST come in for a check up.

would think this was his chance to say something.... to get a referral to a new

blood work (remember I said his blood tests from work came back showing

diabetic, hypertension, AND high cholesterol).

new. Oh wait, there is something new. Since he's been taking the Prednisone he

can't sleep, he's jittery & he's forgetful. Spacy, he said. And he's a welder.

Sigh....
