Hi Ginny,My appointment with the new pain management Dr. is on October
11th. I have not been feeling real well with the pain lately,last time
I went to pain management I told hom that I was having breakthrough pain
and his responce was instead of increasing the meds I should be
increasing my activities.Well it is getting worse which I knew it
would,But I will not call this Dr. I will wait until I see the new Dr.
Yes it leaves me to suffer but I relly do not want to deal with the P M
Dr. that I have at the moment due to the fact that he is a jerk.My
husband had an appointment with my PCP Dr. and the Dr. ask if him if
he was my husband and he told hom yes.The pcp asked my husband if he
went to the appointments with the P M Dr. and he told hom yes he
did.The pcp Dr. asked my husband what he thought of the p m Dr. and my
husband told him that there is more to being a Dr. than just having the
traing and knowledge of being able to treat someone.That A Dr. should
have people skills also and the pcp said he was exatly right and that
this p m Dr. does not have people skills he came right out and told my
husband that the p m Dr. was a total jerk.THat in this field especially
they should be caring and compassioniate and this Dr. certainly is not
either.He is self centered and likes too show how smart he is.When I
spoke to the new p m Drs. office the first question I asked was when I
have an appointment with the Dr. will it be only me that he is seeing
at that time and not 2-3 other patients that he would be running back
and forth between.She told me absolutely not when it is my time it is my
time and nobody else will be scheduled at that time.That is one thing
that I certainly did not like about the p m Dr. that I was seeing.Well
I am sorry that this was so long but I have to vent sometimes and I know
that everyone on this forum understands."FRIENDS THAT STICK TOGETHER"
