Hey, thanks again.
Just cause we chat on the med board, to keep things straight. My G.P is an idiot. He truly is. Once when I was in emergency care he was supposed to send a list of my prescriptions, it took him 3 days, and then he sent a list of meds I'd never been on.
I refused to take them and was listed as a "difficult patient"
He's twice made mistakes that could have been fatal had I not caught them, and I have to
talk to him about medication side effects, though he refuses to believe me (like the zyprexa weight gain, OH AND DEPEKOTE CAUSES WEIGHT LOSS!!!!
I forgot about that. He's like a nightmare doc.
Fortunately I have a former p.doc who is so unbelievably kind and wonderful and even though I'm not his patient anymore, and not even in the same city,
if I'm really having trouble with G.P, he will
give my Dr. a call, and validate what I'm saying
even though he shouldn't have too. He has many letters after his name, so G.P doesn't argue with him.
Of course the fact that I've always been correct should perhaps clue G.P into the fact that maybe I know what I'm talking about but it doesn't.
Anyway, I just wanted to say that, cause I do refer to a brilliant doc, and an idiot doc,
and its not a result of extreme mood swings on my part!!!
