Annoying that is! But do you have someone else to go with you? I know when I go to the Doc, I immediately space out, start thinking of worse-case scenarios, and don't hear a word she says. Another "Quiet" person to bear witness is a good thing. I took my cousin to a Fibro clinic and her mother, my aunt, insisted on going along. Then she proceeded to tell the Doctor about her illnesses. My cousin, the Doc, and I just looked at each other over her little head and agreed that Auntie D needed to wait outside:} But I took copious notes. Even taking a small tape recorder can be helpful.

Well, I wanted my son to go to the Oncologist with me. They did a lot of blood work also I asked my two doctors if they were preparing me for NASA Space shuttle? I guess they thought I had blood cancer (I forgot what they called it, maybe lymphoma....?? But, I was told by my Rheumatologist that I did not have it. Tomorrow, I will hear those words from the Oncologist. Thank God, I am already dealing with two diseases and do not need another one. Actually, I also am at Stage 3 Kidney failure. By all rights I should be flat out and instead I a alert and feeling less pain tonight.

Happy for you ,we have to keep fighting and not give in to our diseases whatever they maybe but ,a positive attitude ,healthy eating and good quality water ,some exercise and believe in God are creater is the key.I can tell you are this kind of girl Keep on ,keeping on.
