I had my appt with my primary today--the ARNP who does most of my healthcare. He got the point pretty quickly that Im not as interested in NIH now since Dr Hejdenberg is offering me the clinical trials with the drug I wanted to try. It seems the primary isnt much interested in me if he cant put NIH on his resume. He was really nasty.
I only get appts with him every 4 months so when I see him, I have alot to tell him. I try to shorten it, tell him what happened since I saw him last. 17 abnormal labs and the report of the anterior infarct. He wasnt the least interested, said "What do you want me to do about this?" I was in shock... terrible medical care.
Dr L sent a report to him and literally lied about what happened with my last visit--where he said I didnt have a masto rash, I had hives instead. His report says he told me I did not have hives. He also mentioned the BMB to be done soon.
I told my primary that I postponed it---that Dr L didnt understand or care for the correct protocal "I'll do it MY way or not at all," and I needed it done correctly. My primary was yelling at me, how he referred me to him (He didnt I found him), and I wasnt cooperating with my care. I kept trying to tell him about Dr Hejdenberg and the difference in a true expert. He continued to yell at me and said "What do you want? Im busy."
I trully felt he had the attitude there is nothing wrong with me and Im not cooperating with any medical care. Im positive I will get a letter from him within the week to "fire me" as his patient. Ive seen his office do it to many other people, including both of my sisters. He will get a surprise if he does it to me. I will agree that we should part ways but I will tell him that until I can find a DR to replace him, I expect all my care and meds as usual or I will sue for medical abandonment.
The ONLY reason I stayed with him is because of my pain meds.. I cant make it with the level of pain I live with and no pain meds--most DRs here wont prescribe pain meds the DEA has them so scared. So... Im looking for a new DR before he fires me.
Even my Son says to me, "Maybe hes right Mom, maybe you dont have masto??" I said, "Great , if I dont, the alternative is much worse and it doesnt have IA as a symptom--Ive shocked now 16 times in under 3 years, that isnt imaginary. 17 abnormal labs arent imaginary. Tryptases of 18 then 43 are not imaginary. 3 different IgEs abnormal are not imaginary. 2 echos saying I had an infarct arent imaginary. Ive just had it...My poor son LOL.. I sat and cried and he did anyrhing he could think of to make it better.
It embarreses me that I was a nurse for 35 years and Ive found 2 healthcare professionals who are horrible and really dont care what type of care they give, their egos reign supreme.
Im just angry tonight, BIG time angry. I matter and they better watch their step, Im like that movie, "Im D*** angry and Im not gonna take it anymore." Tomorrow I will lick my wounds and start again.. for tonight I will remember how a human can be far less than human!
