My poor rheumatologist

He so wants to find something and do something and just can't. I think

it's going to drive the poor man crazy. He wants to know what my

pulmonologist says to do and I tell him we're still choosing to do

nothing. Then he sends me to a neurologist and he says nothing he

recommends. Then to his hand picked neurologist who says nothing unless

my CK rises further or spikes. He sends me to another rheumatologist who

says he doesn't see signs of anything. This all starts from U of Chicago

saying probable undifferentiated connective tissue disease or

Polymyositis.

He's also sent me to oncologist to check for two different potential

cancers (I've been checked for four total) and follows the nephrologists

testing carefully wanting to know if something should be done there

while she says we'll just keep monitoring.

So, he took seven more tubes of blood today and urine even though he

took blood two weeks ago and I'm scheduled in 6 weeks again. When my

pulmonologist talks about monitoring its even 4 months, for my

nephrologist its every 3 months, for others it's as indicated, but with

him its every six weeks. Of course I couldn't do it exactly in six weeks

next time because I'll be on the road to Orlando.
