Okay, so I have pi$$*d off my primary care doc for always trying to get the help I need to deal with endo and adhesions. I do have a new doc I see on Nov. 4 th. My doc thinks I'm a loon with talk about lysis of adhesions and adhesion barriers. This is the same lot that sent me into the streets of Boston @ 4: 30am puking and on morphine while I was having a partial obstruction. I loudly refused to sing the discharge papers and stormed out. Long story. So they don't want to deal with me. I went a few weeks back about being 6 mos pregnat looking w/ distention. He did not even examine me!!! He sat me down and said we have to get my mood in order before anyone would take me seriously. I took it ( his condecention, felt like a bad dog). He perscribed a new drug to replace my celexa to remeron which I am not tollerating at all. Horrible consitpation. Not what I need. He said he'd call when he had more time to spend with me. (I'm sure Thats a high priority) thank goodness i did not mention my plans to go to Germany...he might have sent me to a looney bin or put me on thorazine or something. I have been on klonapin since right before my hysterectomy about a year ago. I started out taking half a pill as needed but I was suspose to take a whole a day and over time he saw fit to increase the dosage to 2 a day...half in am half in pm and full @ bed. He only perscribed 45 a month. I never noticed the discrepency. After the last you are nuts talk I decided to take all my meds as perscribed...I do so want to be a GOOD patient. I told him about the discrepency and he said he would fix it. I thought with my new scripts he'd make that change. No change, I am believe he will fix it when I cal the office to remind him. Three calls over two days to actual person to please tell him I am almost out and I still believe he is going to fix it. Well I milked out the last pill to 1/2 a night as I was getting worried. I took my last half the night before last......I have not slept, boy I syre want to but my jaw is just clenched. I have to wait another 5 days before insurance will give me the next refill. I have tried hame remedied but I don't see sleeping anytime soon. Please help with any suggestions or advise. I know I am ranting but you all have been there for me before. Oh ya. My new doc only works on mondays and is on vacation now. He is an internest that took care of both my grandparents as they we're dying. He is @ Mass General the only hospital I have not tried. I don't want to poision him with contact from beth israel. The head of GYN surgery @ Brigham and womans did not think me a loon. Took me seriously and only read my most recent operative report ( all I gave him) I mentioned about Germany at the end of the exam and he said my best bet was to go to Germany. I know I am not crazy but with the shenanagans and run arounds and pain you'd be depressed too. Love to all, Dawn
