Mf-er just give me the antibiotics!!!!
I have a major vent and am at my total limit of being sick on the verge of a total breakdown
Its antibiotics not crack and my Dr is holding out on me.
I have been sick for over a month, with 14 days of an antibiotic already towards the beginning of being sick. I just saw her Monday and I am getting worse not better. AND she wanted me to come back into the office, FOR WHAT? So she can look at my red throat, feel my swollen glands, and see the puffiness under my eyes from my swollen sinuses, she saw that on Monday and still wouldnt hand over the drugs....but she would get another co-pay
So this is what she just told me to take
advil cold and sinus 4 x' a day
allegra 2 x's a day
prednisone as directed
Flonase 4 x's a day
Saline spray as much as I can
DUDE!!! I know what will fix this, I have had about 300 sinus infections and I need sinus surgery for it. What the hell!
Sorry, I just cant take this crap anymore, I want to feel better
Re: Mf-er just give me the antibiotics!!!!
I totally understand how you feel. I really think they just like to see the $ from the co-pay and the $ from the insurance company sometimes.
I have a bulging disc in my back. My general doc is who I first saw for it & I ended up using the chiro out of their office. SO why is it that I can't just call and say YEP I threw my back out, call me in something. Now, if I'm doing that once a month, twice every 6 months, if you're writing me pain killer scripts like I wright my food shopping list I get it BUT I haven't so much as peeped about my back in 3 years and I know if I tried to call today for something they'd make me come in. Really?? YOU KNOW I HAVE A BAD BACK. You can't SEE my pain. But you can gladly make me schlep in there, stand there flinching while you go "yep, you're in pain", write me a script, make me drive to CVS, wait for the script and then go home. WHAT IS THE POINT OF ALL THAT other than for you to make $$$$ off me????
IMO, the entire health care system is a racquet.
I am going to have to do this tomorrow, which will piss me off because I just saw a Dr on Monday but seriously it isnt like I am asking for pain killers and I have chronic sinus issues, I know the deal. Man, am I cranky today!
I could understand if I hadnt seen the Dr in months but I saw her The 1st week of Jan. with a sinus infection and then again on Monday.....she told me to call her if I didnt feel better. I dont have all the time in the world to hang out in their office with my 2 kids hoping no one gives them anything that they will then give back to me, just give me the fuking drugs!!!!! before I go all Terms of Endearment on you!
