It's a beautiful summer day. Finally. and for some of us it doesn't matter how beautiful it is outside. Inside we feel terrible. Pain, poverty, depression, those are some of the aliments that keep some from enjoying a perfect day.
Today I get to go see my Doctor. Isn't that a lot of fun? I can clearly see now why it's called "Practicing Medicine". They don't know what they're doing most of the time. Only "Practicing". Hey, I hear it isn't an exacting science, but shit, you might think they had some idea.
well, as a patient I can tell you what I've learned: Never tell them what you want-You wont get it. Take notes-You'll soon see their contradictions. And try and keep it on one focus, no matter how hard they try and talk to you about other area's in your life. Stay on task. Remember, they only get to see you for a 20 minute snapshot of your life, For the next 90 days they will have no idea how bad or good things are going in your life. If you can't remember the bad days maybe keep a log or journal.
Doctors are just people. They know less about you and your body than you do so it's important to TELL them. Even that said, how many of us are frustrated with the care we receive. a show of hands?
Try and have a great day, even if it's not all you want it to be. From Ward - E
