Guest guest Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 OMG Cassy! This "doctor" should be reported to the AMA! I mean, he DID apologize, but if it weren't for you being bold as you should have been and telling him what's what, maybe he wouldn't have even come back to apologize!!! I'm so proud of you for speaking up, Cassy!!! The guy was/is a first class idiot and shouldn't be treating people in the ER--what an ass! I'm so very sorry you had to be exposed to such a person! I hope you can get the necessary test done ASAP; gallstones or gallbladder issues are no fun from what I hear, and you need to have them dealt with as soon as you can. I cannot believe that this machine couldn't be accessed in the middle of the night--that sounds completely bogus to me--but hey, that's just me--but what if it is really serious--they tell folks, oh well, sorry, ya gotta wait. BS! I am feeling so angry along with you! Enraged actually.I love you Cassy, and hope this can be dealt with TODAY! and that the next doctor you see is either your own, or some other compassionate one. You should not have to deal with another stupid-ass, insensitive boob the likes of 'Dr. Jerk'.Please post back asap when you know what is happening, ok? take care and rest please, and feel well, kate Hi Everyone!!!!To: MSersLife > > > > ??

Guest guest Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 Cassy, Nice to hear from you. I haven't been on much either. My youngest son graduated yesterday. I cried. I told myself I wouldn't but I was so proud. He was 13th in his class of approx. 600. We counted the chairs in the stadium bcs my son didn't know how many was in his class. He doesn't pay attention. He had one teacher that gave him a B+ and that brought his GPA to 3.937 I think. He was upset that he wasn't in the top 10. He was always on the honor roll from kindergarten. All A's, every year. He is a very smart young man. I lost it when he came out and showed me his diploma. Am I nuts or just a proud mother? Anyhoo. So glad to hear from you but so sad that you werer treated that way in the hospital. I relate to your story. Did you end up getting some pain medication even though you didn't want it in the beginning? I hope so. My twin sister has gall stones. It sucks and she has many problems. I know how bad it is. It's best to take care of it early. I am sure you know that. I am just glad someone was nice to you and sorry you had to go through the pain of the IV. Sometimes they suck, period. Today is Monday.,.....everyone gone and I need some really good time for me.....relaxation day although it probabaly won't happen, have too much to do. The graduation party is going well. My son feels guilty about me spending too much money. I ordered supplies (not food) 100% more than my twin sister ordered bcs we have 200 people invited so I need at least 150 plates, etc. She ordered 75. It cost me $425 for plates, decorations, keepsakes, etc. That's not even with food. My ex said yesterday that he would help more with the food and I just need to ask so he is getting chicken catered so I don't have to make so much food for 150 people. I have several things I am making. Next thing................Let's Go Red Wings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Need one more game to win to get the Stanley cup and we may get tickets tonight from my husband's work. We'll see. He landed a big buisiness with the military so he deserves it. What a game that will be bcs we are at home for the next 2 games I think. I am so pumped up about this. I want thim to win soooooooooooooooooooo bad. We watch all the games and yelll at the t.v. We really get into it. It's the only sport we watch and we us it for family time. So, there is my life right now. I hope you get better soon. Take care of yourself please and again nice to get an update. I am totally not ignoring you. I am just extremely busy. Hugs and Love, :)payngabby@... wrote: Hey guys!!!

Guest guest Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 Hey , I hope your day can be relaxing. I always look forward to Mondays and having the kids go back to school. But not for long. In 3 wks, it will be over, and summer will hit us all HARD! Trying to sort out activities and such and see if we have it in the bank/budget to get some sort of pool they can set up in the backyard. Still have to bounce that off hubby...We;ll see.Graduations can be very emotional. It is natural for you to cry. To watch your young boy move into adulthood--to see him be 13th in a huge class of 600! My Lord that is awesome! I'd cry myself! You must be incredibly proud! I now have not 1, not 2, but 3 kids playing ice hockey, so Stanley Cup playoffs have been HUGE around here! My 8 year old and 14 year old sons play; the 14 yr old is a goalie, and quite good. Now my 11 yr old daughter wants to play goalie, and we just spent a hunk of money on pads for her, helmet....oh brother, here we go again with the$!! Some stuff we got hand me down, or hand me over, but some we had to buy. Like skates. Geez. Ice hockey must be one of the most expensive sports known to man...that and paintball--another thing my 14 yr old loves to do. Aw...I'm thinking he just loves to spend money!! That is quite a grad party you are putting on. We usually keep them low key and have a few friends and immediate family. Instead of spending $ on a party, we give them$ as a gift. When my dtr. graduated HS, we bought her the Macbook for college. Anyways, this is turning into a novella. I hope you enjoy your Monday as best you can. I will try and do the same! hugs, kate Re: Hi Everyone!!!!To: MSersLife > Cassy,> > Nice to hear from you. I haven't been on much either. My > youngest son graduated yesterday. I cried.

Guest guest Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 My previous rant to Casy was (duh!) by n Hi Everyone!!!! Hey guys!!! I just wanted to check-in ,and say HI!!! I have really missed you guys!!!!!. I have been really sick . Thursday I ended up going to the ER.I couldnt stop vomiting and the pain was un-real.It is in my upper stomach almost in the middle and a little to the right.I had alot of green bile and couldnt stop puking and heaving.My mom was going to call 911 so I gave in and went on my own.:)Anyways,I had a jerk of a doctor and nurse(will tell you in just a minute)They put me in priority and wile I was waiting the nurse gave me an anti-neas med that disolved onmy tongue.It was so bad I had to be pushed in and out in a weelchair.So, the idiot doc thought I might have gallstones and ordered an ultrasound.Thannk god the u/s ladywas nice. Took awile for that and she asked if I had heart problems and I told her about my nerves and all that,asked if she could even see the heart area and she said nothat she was looking at my internal organs and she was just asking out of curiosity.?end of that part.So,finally after a few hrs the doc came in and said they seen something and he thinks it may be Gallstones.I was suppose to see my pcp the next day(fri)but she isnt there on friday so I will be calling tomorow for an appt.He says I need a HIDA scan to completly rule outthe Gallbladder, so for now it is that stupid word "of unknown etiology". He says they dont have access to the HIDA machine in the middle of the night,but I think hejust had it in for me.haha.he was a true jerk!!!! So,I am on a low fat,no fried food,meat,etc. .. but that is ok since anything I eat upsets my stomach anyway.So,for now I ameating very light and ridiculously healthy. Maybe I will lose some pounds.hehe. ...Hello to all the new members!!!! I am so so behind but will try to say hello to each of you as soon as I can.I have been in bed or on the couch all day,to sick to evencheck my email on my phone.I know I have missed alot but I will eventually catch up.Just gimme a month or two! hehe..Ok,well back to my jerk doc story.....So,we get to the ER and I finally get to see a doc but he was a rude rude jerk!!! Sorry guys,I have never been talked to this bad. He started to ask me the regular older questions and we get to the part of diseases,etc. . and I start to tell him my dx's and he dosnt have a clue what im saying..This I could tell and tried tooffer as simple but detailed of an explanation inhe middle of crying and screaming in pain,oh and vomiting,and he says ok,ok,and gestures his hand(like you would gesture to say "Cmon,move it along" or Hurry it up,all moving his eyes and stuff)let it go then he says what do you do for a living and my mom says that imdisabled and the doctor looks at me and I say im disabled and really sick and he goes off saying,"You people that say your disabled its ridiculous,and you use itas much as you can,just let everything go and blame it on disabilty,blah blah,and how these days we will find any little thing and say Diability!!! Yes.this is real!!! Canyou believe this? I was beyond mad and he knew I was having a hard time talking to.So,I yelled at him and told him that he couldnt label m,e and that he dosnt knowme and that I was there for help and not to be treated like crap!!!! So,after this he says fine,and says he would get me some pain medicine and I told hime I didnt want painmedicine,and he says Oh,Really?Like hes in shock,and I said No I dont,and he says what do I want then?And I say I want to stop puking and I want my stomach to stop hurting.Well. I ended up getting some cuz my mom but the minute he walked away I was telling my mom and rene that I wanted to leave and I really was.I have neverbeen treated this poorly.I felt so bad that this jerk of a doctor could even be a doc,I swear it felt like I was in an Outer Limits epesode.So,then after the nurse takes overto do an I.V. He was already rude,I think he was mad that I spoke back to the doc,but he said nothing to help or even a smile.And he starts trying to find a vein.I told himwere to go but he didnt listen and he was rough and I kept telling him how bad it hurt and my mom finally said something cuz he just kept poking and jabbing it in,and he says,look,I got the needle in,it is fine,there is no reason why it would hurt and im like well it does,and he says well you have 2 options,I can take it out and re-do itor leave it,and I said if he took it out I would leave so just leave it.Arghhhh.. ..So when I get back from the u/s my mom tells me the jerk doc came to visitand appologized and wanted to tell me.He told us that he was sorry for speaking to me that way and he didnt mean to label me but it was just that what he described wasrreally all he sees all day.WTH!!!!? ??He says he sees so many young people that become disabled or even slightly and they give up on life and throw everything away and he shouldnt have assumed that was my case.So,I told him that I say I am disabled cuz I am and because ,like with him,most the time nobody knows what my illness is,and he says he understands. and hes very sorry,there is more but this is too long.Sorry guys....I just had to share with you guys.It was/is such a nightmare!!! !

Guest guest Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 Damn! I'm sorry. I have had lots of similar experiences with doctors and ER's in particular. Thank goodness for mom's!

Guest guest Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 Hi Cassy~ I am so sorry you had to go through this. Especially, while going through so much pain and nausea. Dr.s like that really erk me. I've had a Dr. like that and I stopped going to him. Thinking back, I really wish I had gone to his superior and reported him. If it ever happens again, I will. I hope you'll find out soon what's going on. It does sound like it may be your gallbladder, but you never know. I was watching a program on Mystery Diagnosis one time, about a woman who was experiencing something like you just described. They thought it was her gallbladder also. They took her gallbladder out and it turned out to be something else. Can't remember what it was. Ditzy me... I just want you to know that I will be praying for you. Get better soon. Love you bunches... Val The residual attributes that we pass down to our children may not be in our genes... but in our souls.

I was so curious why he came to appologize.My mom says because he has a consiounce(sp?) but I dont think so.He mentioned seeing so many people the way he described and attacked me so im thinking he was worried about me complaining.And I sure am!What about all those people he sees?And im sure there are some worse then me and what happens to them?It is scary to even think about it!I didnt believe for a minute that he couldnt get access to that machine if he actually tried.He also had said with the u/s he would know for sure.Ha!Go figure.Im so mad.I dont know how to report him but I will find out some how.He was at Sutter ER and my pcp is also with Sutter but further away so when I see her Im going to tell her and see if she can help or recomend what to do.I know she is going to be furious so im thinking she will try to help out.And the jerk didnt even send me with a stomach med!How are you?I missed you guys so much!take care k! luv n hugz cassy Re: Hi Everyone!!!! OMGCassy! This " doctor " should be reported to the AMA! I mean, he DID apologize, but if it weren't for you being bold as you should have been and telling him what's what, maybe he wouldn't have even come back to apologize!!! I'm so proud of you for speaking up, Cassy!!! The guy was/is a first class idiot and shouldn't be treating people in the ER--what an ass! I'm so very sorry you had to be exposed to such a person! I hope you can get the necessary test done ASAP; gallstones or gallbladderissues are no fun from what I hear, and you need to have them dealt with as soon as you can. I cannot believe that this machine couldn't be accessed in the middle of the night--that sounds completely bogus to me--but hey, that's just me--but what if it is really serious--they tell folks, oh well, sorry, yagottawait. BS! I am feeling so angry along with you! Enraged actually. I love you Cassy, and hope this can be dealt with TODAY! and that the next doctor you see is either your own, or some other compassionate one. You should not have to deal with another stupid-ass, insensitive boob the likes of 'Dr. Jerk'. Please post back asapwhen you know what is happening, ok? take care and rest please, and feel well, kate Hi Everyone!!!! To: MSersLife & gt; & gt; & gt; & gt; ?? Hey guys!!!

Guest guest Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 At least you got an apology! Last time I went to the ER the Dr there lied to me, said he had called my neuro and that my neuro had told him that you cannot get an exacerbation from heat!!! A total lie, cuz even my nincompoop neuro knows that you very much CAN get one! Then he DID call my neuro and told him something, not sure what it was, but it caused trouble between us, until we decided that WE were at least adult enough to let it go, and be "friends" again, once we realized that the guy was nothing more then a troublemaker. I told Rob, if I get sick again, don't take me to that ER, just let me die! Well all y'all I am alone again, Rob is off taking Mike back to Md., then back up to Joisey to do more readings, then home, probably next Sat or Sun. They did get the kitchen remodeled, and the front porch enclosed, looks really awesome! My chair is STILL not here, so it doesn't matter that they didn't get the ramp made. Rob can do that in a day when he gets back. And n...we put up a Mezuzah!!!! On what is now the new front door!!! WOOHOO hugs Cassy, you get better, that is an order!!! Hugs Akiba -- Hi Everyone!!!!

Guest guest Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 hi Akiba!!! Ya.I suppose but to be honest the damage was done and the appology didnt mean anything. I told them the same thing,I would rather die then go to that ER again... That really sucks about your er trip and neuro.I have had docs mess up the same way and it was really hard to get another to listen to me,and of course most the damage was already done,and now im so messed up.Wasted time. Everyone knows what heat can do to a person with MS,and all they have to do is go on the puter or open 1 of there books and he would have.Sounds like he was playing dumb,or mayb e he is just that dumb.Another jerk to add to the list. Awwwww,Im sorry Rob is leavn again. How are you feeling?Will you be ok while he is gone? Gotta question,Do you homeschool Robbin? I am thinkn about homeschooling Gabby,I just cannot decide.They have something called Kindercare and they pick up and drop off,but I think itl be expensive.I cannot drive and dont think Gabby will do ok on the bus by herself. She is still 4 and will be when she starts,she would be an early kindergarten starter.I dunno.... Does Rob travel very far?Say.as far as I live???? I could really use a healing,even a reading. My life is insane,I cannot stand being so sick anymore.Every single day I feel like I am going to die,and it really sucks. Im so happy for you that the remodel is done!!1 Will you be showing any pictures?Yes?Cant wait!!!! That so stinks your scooter isnt there.:(Any idea when it will come??I hope soon I know how bad you need it.it definetly makes a difference...

Guest guest Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 Yes, we have homeschooled Robbin from the start. What state do you live in? Some states are easier then others, this one is wicked easy...for which I am truly grateful! I can send you Reiki anytime you need it, if you'd like a reading you can get one when he gets back, he is awesome at helping people find direction. I think I've said this before, but we don't charge, we do, however, gratefully accept donations when possible.What is a mezuzah...WHAT IS A MEZUZAH???? whaddya mean what is a Mezuzah?!?!?!?!?! Just kidding hun...it is this little metal thingy you affix to the outside of the front door, kind of a Blessing, if you will...they're pretty neat, you say this little prayer when you place it, it makes me feel, well...safer? Look them up in Wikipedia, they have pictures and a much, MUCH, better explanation! And yes, of course I will be putting pix in my blog, as soon as I get it together to take some!

But then everyone here thinks she will lack social skills but to be honest I dont think she is completly ready for there routine. If her routine is messed with she gets bonky. We do things by are own pace and time and school is going to be alot different.I cannot get her to wipe her poop. She will scream and scream.Awile back she almost had it but then she got it on her hand and now freaks out everytime I dont go to help and tell her to wipe her own but.lol.We have lots of issues.My lil Gabby,she keeps my spirits up.Im very close to my kids but Gabby is more of a mommys girl.Always with me,my lil minnie me. Lol.Only she looks more like her dad.lol.I want to be selfish and keep her home but I dont know if I can do the mandatory teaching hrs required.Will see.Id love a Reiki and definetly a reading and I will definetly donate.And apreciate alot! I think I need a Mezuzah.luv ya Hi Everyone!!!! Hey guys!!! I just wanted to check-in,and say HI!!! I have really missed you guys!!!!!. I have been really sick . Thursday I ended up going to the ER.

I had alot of green bile and couldnt stop puking and heaving.My mom was going to call 911 so I gave in and went on my own. Anyways,I had a jerk of a doctor and nurse(will tell you in just a minute)They put me in priority and wile I was waiting the nurse gave me an anti-neas med that disolved on my tongue.It was so bad I had to be pushed in and out in a weelchair.So,the idiot doc thought I might have gallstones and ordered an ultrasound.Thannk god the u/s lady was nice. Took awile for that and she asked if I had heart problems and I told her about my nerves and all that,asked if she could even see the heart area and she said no that she was looking at my internal organs and she was just asking out of curiosity.?end of that part.So,finally after a few hrs the doc came in and said they seen something and he thinks it may be Gallstones. I was suppose to see my pcp the next day(fri)but she isnt there on friday so I will be calling tomorow for an appt.He says I need a HIDA scan to completly rule out the Gallbladder,so for now it is that stupid word " of unknown etiology " . He says they dont have access to the HIDA machine in the middle of the night,but I think he just had it in for me.haha.he was a true jerk!!!! So,I am on a low fat,no fried food,meat,etc... but that is ok since anything I eat upsets my stomach anyway.So,for now I am eating very light and ridiculously healthy. Maybe I will lose some pounds.hehe.... Hello to all the new members!!!! I am so so behind but will try to say hello to each of you as soon as I can.I have been in bed or on the couch all day,to sick to even check my email on my phone.I know I have missed alot but I will eventually catch up.Just gimme a month or two! hehe..Ok,well back to my jerk doc story.... So,we get to the ER and I finally get to see a doc but he was a rude rude jerk!!! Sorry guys,I have never been talked to this bad. He started to ask me the regular old er questions and we get to the part of diseases,etc.. and I start to tell him my dx's and he dosnt have a clue what im saying..This I could tell and tried to offer as simple but detailed of an explanationin he middle of crying and screaming in pain,oh and vomiting,and he says ok,ok,and gestures his hand (like you would gesture to say " Cmon,move it along " or Hurry it up,all moving his eyes and stuff)letit go then he says what do you do for a living and my mom says that im disabled and the doctor looks at me and I say im disabled and really sick and he goes off saying, " You people that say your disabled its ridiculous,and you use it as much as you can,just let everything go and blame it on disabilty,blah blah,and how these days we will find any little thing and say Diability!!! Yes.this is real!!! Can you believe this? I was beyond mad and he knew I was having a hard time talking to.So,I yelled at him and told him that he couldnt label m,e and that he dosnt know me and that I was there for help and not to be treated like crap!!!! So,after this he says fine,and says he would get me some pain medicine and I told hime I didnt want pain medicine,and he says Oh,Really?Like hes in shock,and I said No I dont,and he says what do I want then?And I say I want to stop puking and I want my stomach to stop hurting.Well.I ended up getting some cuz my mom but the minute he walked away I was telling my mom and rene that I wanted to leave and I really was.I have never been treated this poorly.I felt so bad that this jerk of a doctor could even be a doc,I swear it felt like I was in an Outer Limits epesode.So,then after the nurse takes over to do an I.V. He was already rude,I think he was mad that I spoke back to the doc,but he said nothing to help or even a smile.And he starts trying to find a vein.I told him were to go but he didnt listen and he was rough and I kept telling him how bad it hurt and my mom finally said something cuz he just kept poking and jabbing it in, and he says,look,I got the needle in,it is fine,there is no reason why it would hurt and im like well it does,and he says well you have 2 options,I can take it out and re-do it or leave it,and I said if he took it out I would leave so just leave it.Arghhhh....So when I get back from the u/s my mom tells me the jerk doc came to visit and appologized and wanted to tell me.He told us that he was sorry for speaking to me that way and he didnt mean to label me but it was just that what he described was rreally all he sees all day.WTH!!!!???He says he sees so many young people that become disabled or even slightly and they give up on life and throw everything away and he shouldnt have assumed that was my case.So,I told him that I say I am disabled cuz I am and because ,like with him,most the time nobody knows what my illness is,and he says he understands.and hes very sorry,there is more but this is too long.Sorry guys....

Guest guest Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 I love homeschooling. I really REALLY doubt I would survive seeing Robbin get on a bus and go off. We "unschool" more then anything. He is SO bright and SO smart, the one time we did put him (briefly) in school, they didn't know what to do with him! He was in (I think) second grade, and the school complained to us that his reading was off the chart and they only went up to 6th grade and didn't have anything to challenge him with!! So we've had him home since. I will send you Reiki tonight while I am in bed, just before I go to sleep. I got my Mezuzah from eBay, it came from Jerusalem! Hugs sweetie.... Akiba -- Hi Everyone!!!!Hey guys!!! I just wanted to check-in,and say HI!!! I have really missed you guys!!!!!. I have been really sick . Thursday I ended up going to the ER.I couldnt stop vomiting and the pain was un-real.It is in my upper stomach almost in the middle and a little to the right.I had alot of green bile and couldnt stop puking and heaving.My mom was going to call 911 so I gave in and went on my own.:)Anyways,I had a jerk of a doctor and nurse(will tell you in just a minute)They put me in priority and wile I was waiting the nurse gave me an anti-neas med that disolved onmy tongue.It was so bad I had to be pushed in and out in a weelchair.So,the idiot doc thought I might have gallstones and ordered an ultrasound.Thannk god the u/s ladywas nice. Took awile for that and she asked if I had heart problems and I told her about my nerves and all that,asked if she could even see the heart area and she said nothat she was looking at my internal organs and she was just asking out of curiosity.?end of that part.So,finally after a few hrs the doc came in and said they seen something and he thinks it may be Gallstones.I was suppose to see my pcp the next day(fri)but she isnt there on friday so I will be calling tomorow for an appt.He says I need a HIDA scan to completly rule outthe Gallbladder,so for now it is that stupid word "of unknown etiology".
