dr apointment today

[Guest guest]

Just a routine appointmant

but my first since being dx.

It was kinda frustrating,

almost everthing we talked about ended with him saying ,

" of course that could be cause you are pg "

I guess in a way thats true.

i wish i would have spoken up more about my fatigue , but can

do that next time. I have had dibilitating fatigue for years, not just recently.

but he did say we can treat fatigue, but i am guessing you don't want to take anything while you are

pg, wich is true.

I was happy that he sat and really listened to my questions and concerns, i didn't feel a bit rushed.

I was a little worried because he told me ( in response to a

question about whether heat caused relapses) that there are more

cases of ms close to the equator then far away, i didn't say anything

but i was almost sure ( these days i don't argue any point without

going back to recheck it ) that was backwards and it is.

I am trying to remeber that dr are human and people can get

things mixed up, but i am kida afrais that there might be other things

he has wrong too. ugh.

I thought about trying to find another neuro but as i am self pay

i don't know if i would be accepted anywhere else.

I have a feeling he is new out of college or whatever they do

just before they get a position at a hospital, i know he is new at the hospital.

well guess i ought to try to go back to sleep

Ah, yes, the lovely dismissal in the form of "not everything is MS". <gg> You tend to know when it is and when it's PG, eh? <g>

Yup, the equator thing is backwards, but for the life of me it sounded right at first. LOL It wasn't until I remembered Vit D that it flipped straight forward in my head. LOL

Heat is a common trigger, you're right. )

Resident?

HUGS,
