I make a list of questions when i go to the doctor. I also have a couple of friends that i trust to go with me. They know me and sometimes spot things i missed or didn't noticed.

My new doctor acts like the reason im there is not important enough. Sometimes, when something is wrong, I need to find out if there's an underlying issue. As far as im concerned, if im paying for the damn medical bill, you better do your job and help me figure out how to fix the issue im there for. Otherwise, im finding a new foctor. Never belittle a patient.

I speak the truth when I say this. She’s absolutely hundred percent and what’s hard is I advocate for myself I do everything from my bed in my room which I cannot walk I’m permanently disabled. I have multiple sclerosis that’s non-relapse primary progressive since 2010. I used to walk you know. False hopes doctors lie. I have interstitial cystitis and my urologist is more of a doctor than I’ve had for primaries. My neurologist is just a plant. And my primary doctor because I told her a few things about what I needed and she couldn’t do it and when I try to get rid of her, she needed to have a conference because I hurt her feelings. Yes they are humans. They’re not gods do not be afraid of them. They can’t do anything more than just write a prescription and to make sure that you’re well. Other than that always ask questions and if you don’t know how to ask a question or what to ask find someone like a patient advocate to help you. I’m free. I got nothing else to do.
