I have pissed off my rheumatologist to the point that he broke up with me. And I got my period today. All in a day's work for Ms. Pissy-Pants.
The doctor's nurse called me tonight to tell me that "Dr. [X] says you have osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia and you should follow up with Dr. [wrong name of my PCP]."
I'm going to go ahead and say I just got the equivalent of an answering machine break-up. LOL
Piece of poop doctor-- I should charge him the money I spent on the 4 useless meds he prescribed.
At least I have my period to keep me busy for the rest of the week. ![]()

Re: My work here is done.
I'm sorry about the period. Talk about bad timing with everything else going on this week. And, yes, you did get the answering machine break-up. :-P
If only the rheumatologist could have given you the diagnosis and sent you back to your PCP at the beginning, right? I'm sad to read the diagnosis but I know how many months you've been trying to make headway on getting one; I am glad you finally have something concrete to work with. I hope that your PCP is able to provide you with the care you need from here. Frankly, once I had my diagnosis, I gave my rheumatologist 2 more appointments and then high-tailed it back to my PCP. She was MUCH better about taking the holistic approach I wanted. I hope the same ends up being true for you. You know I'm here if you need anything at all!
Blech to the Rheum doctor. I haven't met a helpful one yet.
I'm sorry about aunt flo as well- she's a biatch.
