So if ya’ll have any good prayers, thoughts, etc. for me, I’d appreciate them.
My frustration level has just really gone through the roof; to the point I can’t really go into it here. It may involve a change in doctors. I haven’t settled on that, yet. Tomorrow may give me a better idea of what to do.
In the meantime, though, I’m just feeling like I’m walking a tightrope mentally and I’m about ready to fall.
My beef is I once had good doctors up in NJ and I haven’t found anything close down here. They just don’t listen or answer questions or take concerns seriously. I’ve been called a “Nervous Nelly” so often I am beginning to feel like they feel I’m a hypercondriac or something, and I’m not.
My BP was 180/130 a few weeks ago, they say because I was stressed and nervous. I said no, I’m sick!! This is stroke level time. Medicine or something please! Something is wrong inside.
I’ve been having this terrible pain in my lower right side that keeps escalating. Once they ruled out appendicitis they are taking their sweet time. Now the pain radiates down my thigh and up to my kidney area. They do suspect the ovary now, but come on… if it hurts this bad then what if it is cancer or soemthing? They need to put me through tests at once, not every other week with a “Ooops, this isn’t it” visit in between.
It’s almost as if I have to self-diagnose myself. They won’t even order my records sent down from NJ. So I did and after my MRI this Thursday – and I do go into that office I have these and a list of medications (BP, Glucose, etc.) that I will demand a prescription for. Shit, I’m not even asking for pain killers – I have ways to get that. I just don’t want to stroke out with High BP or go into a diabetic coma while they tiddle around exploring stuff. Arrrrgggh!
MS, was also something they are considering because my right side now is numb and tingling. I feel like screaming, oh yeah… I may have stroked already for all I know. Fruittards! Arrgggh!
Prayers going out your way! I myself am skipping work today. Frustration (and pain) has encouraged me to take a 3 day weekend, so I’m here to listen if you need to let all that “arrrggh” out. Hang in there me matey.
