Mark -Re: Trouble with SSD and now diagnosis ?

[Guest guest]

The problem with docs trying to treat CP patients is that SO many

people want narcs now. I have to jump through hoops just to get my

avinza filled every month. My doc makes me take a drug test every

time I go in to make sure I am taking the pills and not out there

selling them. He is so worried about messing up he has camera's

everywhere...even in the parking lot to try and catch people that

sell the drugs. I have been to many doctor's and everytime I have

had to take ALL my paperwork I have collected over the 19 yrs to

them so they are telling the truth about being truly sick. I hate

that a bunch of bad apples ruin it for everyone that is truly sick

and hurting. Going to my ER is a joke....I usually just sit through

the pain all nite and fight my way in to see my PCP. I have learned

though that if you have to go to a doc that doesn't believe you are

sick then maybe you should try to find a new doc. I am lucky that

my PCP also has other doc's I can see and know all about my case

that way if he is too busy or not there I can see someone else.

That is unreal...first of all...I would tell that Dr to get a grip on

life....why would you sell you drugs when you need them for your own pain

meds...I am not taking a pee test to see that I am taking my meds...I am a

grown adult.....My word is good enough..period......anyway......I have a big

problem with Dr's treating people with disrespect and that is just my humble

opinion...I know everyone's situation is different and I can only say things

that are from my point of view...but I have been poked and proded and have

spent a year in the hospital and I will be damned if I am going to let some

snot nose Dr treat me with no respect.....I treat everyone I meet with the

uptmost respect and I expect the same in return...I hope this finds you and

yours well.....Mark

You go Mark. I totally agree with you. I would not drug test for something

that I need as a patient suffering with this ugly disease!

Mark,

I thought I was well after my gallbladder removal. I actually started to think

I was cured. Wish-full thinking... My symptoms actually subsided for about a

week. They are back in full force this week. Now the doctors are saying I may

have a stone in my pancreas. I almost hope that is what is going on because it

is fixable right? I also developed an infection at the incision above my belly

button. The G.I. doc told me I could return to work a week after my surgery but

the nurse told me I probably went back too soon. I don't know.

I noticed that one of your posts stated you had been in the hospital for a year!

I can't imagine what that must have been like for you. I was in for 2 weeks &

that was enough for me!

Well, you take care. How is the pneumonia?
