Allow me to vent and bitch about my current doctor: I have fibromyalgia, in addition to some other chronic issues, so summer of 2017 I switched to an internist so I’d have ONE doc. I also have a chronic stomach problem, so sure, I see the need for a GI. But I swear, with every little problem I have, this man wants me to see another specialist. Headache? Neurologist. Fell down, bursitis flared up? Orthopedist. Depressed? Psychiatrist.
I’m going tomorrow for a cough I’ve had for months. I fully expect him to want to refer me to a lung specialist. Enough, if he does I’m getting another doctor.
Dammit.
My narcissistic, histrionic mother had 12 different doctors at the time she died; she LOVED medical(or any) attention. With each time this happens, I hate it because it feels like her. I’d just about rather die than be anything like her!
Thanks for listening to all that.
