I went to the docs today- long again

[Guest guest]

i think I pissed them off but I honestly did not mean too but i was kinda

bitchy myself.( A frickin dog woke me up at 4:30 and barked until 7 am this

morning when I had to get up anyways.)The last time I went was after my

amniotic

fluid had gone back to normal after it had been high and I saw jackie, the

nurse practioner, which I don't like to see to begin with but can deal with it

once in awhile, I like Jackie as a person but not as my care giver in this

pregnancy cause she always says if I need something done " I don't know what the

doctor wants to do " " We will ask him at your next visit " Well, my last visit

when the fluid was down she said she did not know what the doc wanted to do and

I

could have whatever those things done at my NEXT visit in 2 weeks(today).

Well today when I went in the lab and they did my bp and urine and said to go

wait in the waiting room that JACKIE would be right with me and i said what??? I

was supposed to se Dr. larson today and she said NO, you are seeing Jackie. So

My big mouth said " Oh GREAT " and I picked up my purse from the floor and

went back to the waiting room. I wasn't happy but was going to see her. So she

calls me in about 10 minutes later and says for me to hold on a minute she

would be back, she went and said for me to go back to the waiting area that she

put me on Dr. Larsons list so he could see me but she would not look me in the

face, I was not that mad or anything about it but I think they told her I was

cause she was ignoring me now. ANyways, skip this part now and get to Dr.

LArson, i saw him and he checked me and still does not know where the bleeding

came

from. I am still closed but am 30 percent effaced ( not too sure what that

means, SHEILA HELP???) and they did check me for any amniotic fluid leakage and

said it was good. i do have a white spot on the outside of my vagina (by where

the episiotomy happens) he wants to biopsy that he seems concerneed about and

said NOT TO FORGET IT, and he mentioned this before to me and now he is even

more insistant but I would rather wait until after, it is only a few more

weeks so he said he could do it at delivery since he would have laticane there.

He

also had me go on the monitors for 20 minutes and a new nurse I never saw

came in and took me off, said to hold a minute and went to show the doc and came

back and told me I could go home. Never explained anything about what the test

showed or anything. I felt like I was treated kinda shitty today. It used to

be a nice docs office with only my old doca nd then he got a partner and now

there are 4 of them and they are too busy for any real personal care anymore. I

am glad this is my last baby so I don;t have to go there again, I am not

liking it there anymore. I go back in 10 days and will see a different doc that

day which I already hate seeing a new face so maybe I will s e if I can get it

switched somehow, I don't know...I don't know why but i feel bad that I said

anything about Jackie seeing me but with the bleeding and stuff that has been

happening I would rather play it safe, UGHHH, it is not a good day.

Oh Robin!

What a lousy day! They MUST understand you're worried and a little

scared and there's nothing worse than having them NOT communicate

with you. I hope your next appointment goes better. Maybe you should

try this new doctor, just to see if you like this one better.

I wish now I'd been more insistent about seeing the same doc each

visit. I've seen so many that I feel none of them really understand

me and my " special " needs with being a gastric bypass patient. The

one I'm seeing next week I've seen twice before and have liked the

best, which helps.

Hang in there! Keep us posted. Are they going to give you the

results of your visit yesterday?
