Hi again, a friend of mine told me I shouldn’t be on an online support group. She said it would bother me. But I need to write. Today my husband and I had an appointment to see a gyne. It was one I never seen but at the same clinic I go to. He examined me was about to do the biopsy went to get nurse. I was able to have my husband in there. Even though nurse didn’t like it. But I explained I have extreme anxiety. When dr came back he said I had to have pre authorization from my insurance. We have PPO. This should have all been taken care of prior to my visit. The nurse should have known why I was coming in. I had an ultrasound done at immediate care in the same group. Then he said it might take 2 weeks. I couldn’t believe I was hearing this. When we got home my husband called insurance and within the hr it was approved. Then we couldn’t go back even though he had an opening. He was leaving after last patient. So he can’t do it till next Thursday. I had made an appointment last week for next Tuesday, the gyne I seen in March for my annual. I messaged her to see if she could do it. Then I get a message from some nurse probably a manager they don’t like you jumping around with drs for your care. For someone with anxiety to keep waiting and to wait for results. My PCP ordered some tests, my cortisol is high (she said from stress), my potassium is low and ordered something to raise it and I’m worried I’ll have side effects since I’m so sensitive and told me to take magnesium for constipation. Then she’ll order another test to recheck the Potassium. Some time ago she told me to stop eating bananas. I would eat one everyday. But I’ve been constipated. Since I have this anxiety drs don’t believe you could have physical ailments and won’t do tests. My son warned me about this a few months back. He said if I don’t get my anxiety under control when there is something really wrong no one will believe me. But I’m not sure what came first, physical problems or anxiety or meds causing it. Sorry for such a long comment. It’s just frustrating and worrisome. Thank you for reading this. Flo
