Re: I Finally Saw A Doctor!

[Guest guest]

That is great Lona! Hang on to your Doc alot of times they like to up and

leave. Maks me so mad. But, I am really happy for you.

I finally found a doctor that would see me and wait to be paid. First

thing he asked me ? " Why aren't you on Lyrica? " Told him I have no

insurance, and he said he'd hook me up with the manufacturers. Now, he

is also sending me for a ton of bloodwork, as he thinks I am a

diabetic. It wouldnt surprise me. My daughter had to get it from

somewhere. Since I have little or no information on my family medical

history, he is pretty much running every test he can think of on my

blood. (the bruising still hasn't stopped. I have one that's been

there since october) After that, its on to the pain meds and some

antidepressants. He says he doesn't want me to work right now, juts

focus on getting healthy. I told him that since I just got fired, that

shouldnt be a problem!

I tell you, it's a relief just to have a doctor that listens to me and

doesn't tell me it's all in my head. And he didn't say ONE WORD about

my weight! He did recommend that I get out and walk the dog on nicer

days, for my SAD. I can't wait to get this bloodwork done and overwith

and find out what's really going on with me for a change.
