Apologies

I apologize for being twit on this chat. I was very tired, angry, and abused already. That is how I came in and I am sorry.

I just could not find anyone to work with me. This site is allowing people to find someone they can share and connect with.

With me, no, it was a whole different ball game. It was like I was being kicked and condemned. Sadly, I put myself in that thought. I found someone else to help me. I got rid of the last OBYN. I just got someone else. Instead I went for an interview and discussed how I want to be treated. Then I told the nurse how I want my results to be handled. Last, I said that I wanted someone that could sit down with me to discuss any of my major concerns. I did not want to be pushed aside. Besides that is what they are in practice for.

I am not saying that I found a cure, but hope to get friendly staff that like what they are doing and try to deligate their job properly to the needy.

All I am saying is that when you get mistreated by your health care professional like I have, you can be easily think the worst.

Thank you for your time.

Fifi - I am happy for you!!! This is a tough battle and I am glad you found the strength to tell the health care team what you need and how you need it. We all have that right & responsibility. You have taught me a valuable lesson. Thank you! I pray for continued strength for you and for a good support team. I hope you find it within this group!
Blessings to you

hi, fifi. and, welcome back. :) i'm glad you were able to get the medical care that you deserve and need, and that it includes the communication that needs to accompany the technical medical care. and, sometimes, when we're angry, we tend to lash out at 'everyone' - i've been there. it's good to see that you're finding some inner calm and peace which will certainly help you deal with your medical issues as well as any other issues that may arise. continue to let us know how you're doing!

Fifi,
I'm soooooo glad you found someone new to work with you! I have been very worried about you and your situation and asked some of our other posters on the board if they'd seen any posts from you lately. After you said that you were leaving the board forever, it really freaked me out. I didn't want you to leave with misinformation or in that kind of state.

We are all here to support you and get you the information you need. Of course your physician is always the best place to start and I'm so thankful you've gotten one that is going to work with you. Please keep coming back.
