A revelation: Ladies only, please! ARGH! Doctor's are such A$$e$

Okay, so I am venting again in this post.

The appt was Thursday. I got a letter today informing me that he is releasing me from his care. I should have figured that was the deal when he wrote on the form that the next visit was at my discretion. I also didn't have to pay anything when I left. If he bills me later, I'm not paying. And I am reporting him.

He must have taken me seriously when I said "we're done."

Self-righteous little b@astard. I still can't believe some of the stuff he argued with me over. And he started the fights.

Well, good riddance!

I'll take the positive results with me. This is my bloodwork, and the new knowledge I have about my father's death. His questions caused me to look up Kaposi's Sarcoma versus Sarcoidosis. He must have had one or both of these near the end. He started with bone cancer in his right hip. He had injured/fractured his hip when he fell off of a jeep somewhere in the Far East, Laos maybe? This was in the early sixties during all of the defoliation spraying during the Viet Nam war. But back then the government also took care of its soldiers and their families.

Thanks for listening.

My sister and I have agreed "good riddance to bad parts" having both parted company with gall bladders in the past year and a half, and I with my thyroid gland. But in your case, it is good riddance to a bad doc!

When my endocrinologist retired a few years ago, I was given another doctor in the practice. During check ups, he'd sit at his desk looking at the file and never once looked at me. Questions were not accepted or answered, he discouraged even asking. Things went completely out of control and I ended up in the emergency room. At the hospital they ran a series of tests and found that he had me on the wrong insulin for over a year. My son was furious when he heard this and insisted I find another doctor. Now I'm with an excellent doctor that I found on the American Diabetes Association website. You might want to try that if nothing else works out for you.
