So.
Doctor.
Fuck You.
I will explain.
I go into the doctor today to try and get some of my questions answered, and to see if I truly have a chance of walking. (I also need a new bed, chair, standing frame, and viagra....sigh =/ -if you have questions feel free to ask.. yes I can get it up.. I just need it to stay that way, and this is most def because of the injury not ED
)
Anyway, I get there and he comes in. The first question he asks me is this "Do you ever feel depressed or do you ever feel like hurting yourself." I just laughed because I do get depressed now and then because of this, but I will never EVER hurt myself or kill myself. Then he says the reason he asked is because the #1 CAUSE of death for people in my situation is suicide... wow
Then he asks me what my main concern for being here was. I say that I want to walk, and I want to talk to a neck specialist or get surgery, and without skipping a beat he says .."no" (in the most smug and shitty way ever) "not ever" "the technology is not to that point yet"... wow
Immediately after that he asks me to tell him the rest of my list, and I try to make small talk and explain the things on the list etc.. he says to me "just tell me what's on the list"...wow
So I gave him the rest of my list. I told him I need a new bed and he says well does it not work or what and I said that the mattress is destroyed after 12years, and he said ok new bed. I told him I need a new chair because this one is getting old (batteries and shit), and he said ok new chair. I told him I need a standing frame to get use to standing and get my circulation going and he said yep. He says to me that Viagra is no problem I just need blood test, and then tries to make some weird fucking joke about it...wow
He then does some tests on my mobility (legs, feet, arms, hands) and is just so fucking rude through this whole process.
I mean I got scripts for what I ask for, and that's cool, but I doubt medicaid is going to actually cover all of this.
And I understand that doctors need to be blunt, but this guy was a straight up asshole.
Tomorrow I plan on calling and telling them that I want a new doctor and I still want to see a neck specialist.
That's my day.
=/
But I'm not giving up.
So fuck that doctor in his stupid fucking ass.
