Doctors suck.

I spoke to my doc. He said stop the meds. HE could prescribe me another one but I would more than likely have the same allergic reaction. He then asked if I had seen the surgeon yet (I am getting the thyroid removed) and I said no, you never instructed me to do that. He said it probably won't be until Nov that I can get in there, then Dec surgery.

I am just so angry and frustrated that my endo never followed up on me, to say schedule an appt, etc. So basically he said I have to just suffer with hyper symptoms until I am able to get surgery.

I dotn know what to do. I could switch but I feel like - it doesn't mean it will be any better.

Hi April,


It seems the doctors deal with this so much that they assume we know what procedures to follow.

Yes, I have the name.

No I haven't looked into it. He works at the biggest and most advanced hospital in this area.

My doc tried again to do the RAI but I said no. The Endo I go to is at that hospital.

So i know they are busy there. The girl still hasn't called me to let me know if I have an appt or not. Frustrating.
