RE: first tx, what happened

[Guest guest]

I refused to do

a early appointment, they aren’t the ones doing the treatments for months

and sorry but who cares if it fits into their schedule, they should be working

with you over the next few months and making it easy on you. You are

paying them and not vice versa. My doctor tried the same thing and I said

no, he made a special trip into the office for a 5 pm Saturday appointment to

get me started. I know this sounds rude, but the medical personal should

be doing all they can to make taking treatments easier on their patients.

Realize the medical profession doesn’t consider the patient these days

and consider themselves more important and their time is more precious. Luckily

my primary physician looks upon her patients as a person I works with them.

She was so good to me when I had problems with my hep doctor. My husband

was in denial and wouldn’t talk about the treatments, so I set up an

appointment to have him discuss the disease with him to get him onboard.

We walk into the office and he ask my husband if he had any questions and

husband said no, so he prescribe me antidepressants. The office visit lasted

less than 14 minutes. I immediately called my primary doctor for a

consultation appointment. We talk for over an hour, and I ask her if I

was wrong to feel that my hep doctor didn’t help the situation. Was

there something I was missing and misinterpreted, she agreed with me an had a stern

talk with my hep doctor. Gosh I felt so bewildered leaving that hep

doctor visit and how it went down. Everything turned on me so quickly

like I was a crack case, and all I wanted was my husband to understand the

disease. I kept all my record and depended on this group for

answers to my questions. Needles to say my hep doctor was fired 3 months

later, thank God. Basically I had to take control over my treatment plan

that would work best with my job.

Sorry for the

long post, and apologize advanced if I have offended anyone.

Imho, just call the nurse of the manufacturer of which ever treatment you are using, Roche or Scherring. I think posted those numbers not long ago. They are there 24/7 and can certainly answer that question and put you at ease. What you don't need now is to be anxious.

Imho, just call the nurse of the manufacturer of which ever treatment you are using, Roche or Scherring. I think posted those numbers not long ago. They are there 24/7 and can certainly answer that question and put you at ease. What you don't need now is to be anxious.

problems with my hep doctor. My husband was in denial and wouldn’t talk about the treatments, so I set up an appointment to have him discuss the disease with him to get him onboard.

Everything turned on me so quickly like I was a crack case, and all I wanted was my husband to understand the disease. I kept all my record and depended on this group for answers to my questions.

Needles to say my hep doctor was fired 3 months later, thank God. Basically I had to take control over my treatment plan that would work best with my job. Sorry for the long post, and apologize advanced if I have offended anyone. Lynne From: Hepatitis_C_Central [mailto:Hepatitis_C_Central ] On
