Spokane area doctors

[Guest guest]

Sher, I live in the same area that Sunny does and I have had terrible problems with doctors both local and in Spokane. I believe that my pulmo doc was a good one but he is leaving Spokane and moving to Tacoma. If he wasn't going to work for Group Health I would still go to him but I've had some bad ones and almost died from the medical care here. That is another reason I want to move. The people who looked at my house a few days ago came back today. They still aren't sure. They seem to have a problem with the septic system. It's apparently not where I thought it was. My agent will find out but he is putting signs up Monday so I suspect that they may have decided against it. BJ

More weirdness from my doctors

Beth, Sher or whoever I have a serious concern about my GI doc. It didn't really hit me until today what he said yesterday. When he was telling me about the surgery and the surgeon he told me if I wanted the surgery not to mention my bowel problems, weight loss or the fact I have trouble eating. He also said "it would probably best if you didn't mention that you are anti-depressants. I was under the impression that you were supposed to tell your surgeon everything especially any meds you take but maybe since they might do it under twilight sleep it doesn't matter. Anyway the GI doc doesn't think the surgeon will operate if he knows I have been really sick with my intestines for the past 13 weeks and have lost over 45 pounds in that time. Does any of this sound right to you? I have always trusted Dr. Craig but after yesterday I am having serious doubts. When I told him about not being able to have regular bowel movements he said "cause you don't eat. Eat then you'll then your bowels will move." When I told him how sick and in pain I get when I eat.... HE SHRUGGED! "One thing at a time. Let's get your lungs taken care of then if you still have a problem come back and we will talk about it then." WHAT!!!!!! Feed back from whoever please and yes I can sure pick 'em when it comes to doctors.
