so yesterday i had my fun "yearly" visit with the ob/gyn. now not that anyone is ever excited to actually go to the doctor-i wasn't not looking forward to it. i've been going to the same place for several years-pretty sure i've never been anywhere else. all subject to change now. first off as i walk in there is a sign explaining that after 3/2012 the practice will no longer be delivering anymore babies. REALLY? WHAT? i am not pregnant now and at this point not sure if i will be again...but i sorta felt like them taking that option away from their practice was sorta taking it away from me. jokingly, i said to the doctor: "what's going on, you don't like being on call all the time?" and she said "yes...i've been birthing babies for 20 years now and i am ready to sleep in my own bed for a whole night!" ok, i guess i can understand...but didn't you get into this business kind of knowing that?
ok-so after that shocking news-she spent 5 minutes talking to me, 5 more minutes doing her thing and then it was pretty much wam, bam, thank you mam'. she explained she wanted to try some new medication for me-but didn't give me much info and left me sitting there. oh and i was supposed to get my blood drawn and after about 5 minutes no one came back into the room. OH DID I MENTION I WAS THE LAST APPOINTMENT OF THE DAY? ugh...i walk out and they are waiting for me and i ask about the blood draw-oh yes...i forgot to tell the nurse...shuffle me back and get that and send me on my way with a sample of medication that i later read is only for 1 day. i don't think i am super needy...i don't need your attention all day-but some-just a little- would be great?
even, if i decide no more babies-i may be deciding no more of this doctor's office....
...just minutes ago i get a call from the doctors office that they are going to call in a script for the new medication. oh ok-i had no idea...oh because no one told me. atleast she remembered to write it in the chart? before she barreled her way out the door for the day. ugh.
sorry for my rant...but its just annoying. i am sure you have stories too!
