I went to see my newly assigned dr. Never met her in my life. But I was at witts end by the time I walked in there. Maintained full composure of as I introduced myself and the on going delimas that my body and myself had been going through for several years now. However, im at the point were its severe. My scalp is now an issue my sinus's are an issue my skin is an issue my nails my feet my migraines are horrible average 10 a month. To top it off I am loosing my hair now. Im 32 years old!
She told me this was just normal stuff people deal with all the time. That I was depressed. Ouch, mother of 4, work out everyother day and in pretty good physical appearance, love my job, co-workers adore me (not kidding) and im a pretty optimistic woman. HOWEVER, at that moment I felt a snap.
Ewww... ewwww it was like a slap in the face to be told that after my two recent visits to the emergency room and my long stay for over 4 days that it was just all in my head? I was uncontrollably vomiting and my itching is REAL. My nails are falling apart and my skin is loosing color. Pretty REAL. After revisiting all these details with her she said, we can retest your migraines. I said, more MRIs... CAT scans urine?
Aside from that, I stood up off the bed they told me to sit on and I stretched out my arm shook her hand in mine and kept holding it as i said very kindly and patiently. I came here today hoping someone would understand instead of looking at me though as if I were a chronic complainer. Im here to be treated for Candida. I have a PPO so if you can not help me its obvious I have found the wrong Dr. I smiled and let go of her hand.
She looked a bit bothered by that. I said, I would like treatment from "blah blah" but since my favored dr is no longer here I will go else where. My eyes were filled with tears by then. BUT STILL composed. She wrote out a prescription. Phew... but it was small. However, a start for me. In the meantime Im looking for a new dr.
