Guest guest Posted January 10, 2004 Report Share Posted January 10, 2004 Natalia you need to sit your doctor down and tell her point blank you have every right to question her and that you expect a clear and concise answer to your questions when asked. If she cannot deal with this then you need to file a complaint with the Medical Association and find another doctor who is willing to treat you as ahuman being and not look down on you. I am a nurse and I treat my patients as I would like to have them treat me. Maureen Hi Gale My doctor is not the nicest woman in the world, and made me very upset throughout the meeting. Me and my family. She calls herself 'the best in the world' thus I have no right to question her. Basically she's all ego. The good news is that I have made improvements. I am off oxygen (SO SO SO HAPPY) and walking around. When I will be able to get a break from here I don't know. My white blood count is still really high, so they might switch up the anti-biotics and steroids again, which means more stay. But I don't mind any more, I am used to it now. But we will see. Even if i am back in a few months, I am well enough now to go home and have a break. I am out of the woods in a sense. I have been quiet since I am so tired. I can't really sleep very well. I am very chlosterphobic and have a really little room. But it is a single so I should not complain. Anyhow, I feel like the walls are closing in on me sometimes. Tomorrow I am going to try to sleep throughout the day. I feel the lack of sleep is making me a bit out-of-it. I am so tired. - of everything.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2004 Report Share Posted January 11, 2004 The next time the doc acts like that do it back. When she asks you how things are going make a smart comment. Some people only need a little jolt to make them realize that they are acting like a$$es. If it continues you really should discuss it with her. Being " the Best in the World " requires a good bedside manner too! The best clinician is not necessarily the best doctor! Mom of 5 with CF, and who has put a few docs in their place before.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2004 Report Share Posted January 11, 2004 Well I have had a few 'outs' with her, and that's how this all started. She basically does not like my bad attitude. She lectured me on that when we were at that meeting and her staff and my family were in shock - it's not her place to lecture me on anything. She's my doctor and her job is to treat me. It was so inappropriate, and it's all because i refuse to lie here (like a lot of people do unfortunetly) and let this disease rule me, and let the staff do whatever they want. I realized really quickly that as a patient in the hospital for a longer period of time, you are treated really badly. So I fight back, since I have no choice, and I have to be here I refuse to be treated badly. And I have been. And according to my doctor patients have no rights. The fact is that she works for me. I do not work for her. Members of her staff mentioned to me later how inappropriate they thought the whole thing was. My mom cried at the meeting. It was awful.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2004 Report Share Posted January 11, 2004 Yeah well first of all I doubt that best in the world crap, second of all if she's it, I hate to see the worst. I am a bit caught, since I have to stay here. there are no other clinics around. The other one that I used to go to, first of all is far away, and is so small that they don't even have an in-patient ward for me to go to when I get sick like right now. They put me on home-care and it was not enough. SO I am stuck. Plus, she works closely with with Toronto General transplant team, that I am hoping for so badly. She can move that along (and is) while at other clinics that would be harder and take longer. i have to swallow my pride here in order to get the best health care fore me. Unfortunately I have to put up with her attitude. It's an unfortunate situation. On Sunday, January 11, 2004, at 08:40 AM, ANDREA FITTING wrote: > The next time the doc acts like that do it back.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2004 Report Share Posted January 11, 2004 Hi Natalia, I have been catching up on all the posts, happy to hear that you have improved, but not happy to hear about this " doctor " you have. What's with that? You have the right attitude girl, don't you change for anyone. We didn't end up taking to the clinic on Friday. Dr. Dell is our doctor, she is new, you probably didn't know her when you were there. Anyhow, she does the Tuesday clinics. He is coughing on and off, it's strange, I start to think..ok, we should get him checked and then he won't cough at all. I just don't know. Any suggestions? He is only 2 so he can't tell me how he is feeling. His behavior is not the greatest indicator, when we were in the emergency room in Oct. He was running around, full of energy, a few hours later we were admitted and he was on Oxygen. Your gown is done, I am afraid that it will be too short. You might have to wear it with pajama bottoms. I am hoping to be able to come and see you sometime this coming week. Fingers crossed for healthy children.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2004 Report Share Posted January 11, 2004 It's not difficult to change doctors, but there just are not many of them, with respect to CF. My problem is that I have one of the best clinics in the world here at St,Mikes in Toronto. It would be dumb of me to go to a smaller clinic where the care is that much worse. Plus the clinic here works very closely with the Transplant team at Toronto General just down the street where I will be getting my transplant. (hopefully soon). It would be stupid of me to go somewhere else at this point in my illness. She drives me nuts though.

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2004 Report Share Posted January 11, 2004 Hi!! You are right I don't know Dr.Dell. I had Dr.on, who retired around the time that I left. He was an old man, but was a great doctor. I do hope that we get to meet. I hope to be out by the end of the week, so we'll see. But we can always meet after when I am out. I would feel better to have you not come here. It's not good to expose even you to all these germs here. You have your kids to worry about. And I get that. Let me know how you feel. May be we could do lunch when I get out. That's 10 days tops if nothing goes wrong, and I feel almost back to normal, or as good as I will get. Tomorrow I will know more about me leaving, so I will let you know. And thank you for my gown!!! That's so great. I will need it again and again I'm sure - wish that was not the case, but there's little I can do. Love how sweet and caring you are, Natalia On Sunday, January 11, 2004, at 12:37 PM, T & C Cowl wrote: > Hi Natalia, > > I have been catching up on all the posts, happy to hear that you have > improved, but not happy to hear about this " doctor " you have.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2004 Report Share Posted January 12, 2004 Natalia, To be honest, it was hard to pick magazines for you. They all seem so trivial compared to the things that you deal with daily. I picked the " Good Housekeeping " issue that has the article on CF in it. I haven't read it, so I hope that it isn't depressing. I also picked a " People " magazine.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2004 Report Share Posted January 12, 2004 Thanks so much. I remembered the address was at her home & I think its her brother that takes it to her.

Guest guest Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 Becky, Happy Birthday, two days early! Good luck with the house hunting. Gale > Hi Gale ! I wasn't trying to ignore your post this computer I am using didn't want to let me sign on and then it booted me off.I wasn't even sure my post to Natalia got thru before.I am aggravated at the rental situation (discrimination on my being alone with 4 kids they would really flip out if they knew I had 8 kids! )I am still reading the paper and writing phone numbers to call tommorrow.Yes I am a survivor!I have survived 8 kids ,12 miscarriages,cervical cancer while pregnant with baby # 5 and went on to have 3 more babies,and just life's B.S. ,and I still have a sense of humor and a head full of graying hair to prove it.I will be 42 this thursday and life is a learning experience! I try to share with others as cf has been a personal part of my life for over 20 years.Sometimes it seems as if we the parents have to tell the doctors their business.I hope You and Yours have been doing OK.Best Wishes BeckyB.-Mama to 8-2w/cf-Nana to 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
