Heshocked me when he said, " well obviously you're managing this fine and you don't need to see me again. " . , Oh my! My Neurologist said the same thing to me once. I told him, you don't see my crying everyday because I can't walk from the pain in my feet(neuropathy). You don't see my moaning at work over my shoulder pain(cysts/fibro). I struggle everyday to keep going and it really messes with the psyche. We live in SPITE of working full time and having major responsibilities. Can't they see that sometimes that makes things harder instead of easier? It is very frustrating. I know we all feel this way regardless of job or family or not. I waited 6 months to see a Rheumy and if she has said this to me I probably would have screamed in her face out of pure frustration and anger.
