Guest guest Posted August 13, 2002 Report Share Posted August 13, 2002 Jacqui--i've had the EXACT same problem with doctors for years and years. I've heard one rheumotologist say (when he wasn't with patients--he was outside the door) that 'if he got one more whining patient with fibromyalgia, he'd ______' another even put in my chart 'drug seeking'.....and i've NEVER been given a prescription for a narcotic..ever!! This probably sounds bad (because i'm not like this), but the last doc I saw said 'he wouldn't treat me until I saw a psychiatrist as FMS is caused by depression), so I thought about it for a few weeks.....and got the bill (over $300-for an office visit), that I wasn't going to PAY this jerk until I saw a psychiatrist! I don't know if we have any recourse when we are ripped off like that...i've donated nearly every extra dollar i've ever had to jerks like this (I figure i've spent $50,000 in the past 6 years-and gotten NO treatment whatsoever, besides antidepressants, nsaids and alot of humiliation....I decided enough was enough...they can EAT that bill... kmnewberry@... _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
