@dubecates You seem to have several autoimmune diseases that you’re juggling. And now you’re not pleased with the current doctor. I would like to think that a doctor would do a physical exam. Otherwise, how would they know if there are any changes! This doctor might be relying on your PCP to check things like a swollen leg. I know my neurologist told me that she only treats my brain and everything else i should report to my PCP. I would suggest that you ask the rheumatologist how he/she practices. Will you do that and let me know the answer?
Does this doctor treat ALL of your autoimmune diseases? Other than this one incident, are you pleased with the care?
