It was 1st rheumatologist visit. I have never in my life had such a horrible experience. He refused to do anything till I go for a sleep study ,and see someone for a chemical imbalance. I am already on medication for depression,and don't need to be seen for that. He wouldn't listen, was aggressive, rude, and knew upfront from gastro referral and me filling out forms I was spitting up blood. He started about calling an ambulance, and just kept about it,and said he really didn't need to seeme,but continued and become more snode and aggressive. I walked out..never done that in my life, but walked out. Now ,I am back to square one. I have felt awful past 2 days ,and lost more weight
. I will be on the hunt as soon as I pull thru this what I call a flare. He said I definitely had fibromyalgia, but refused anything till sleep sturdy and psych. No thanks
I will keep pushing, and dig deeper. Sounds like you have had a rough timefor years,and here I already to give up. 🙂

I am so sorry you had that experience, that is terrible!! I would have walked out too, there is no need for one human to treat another human like that. Is there a different rheum in your area? I would look into finding another one. Through the years I have decided i will not put up with that attitude. If they have an attitude at first visit, I am gone!! I am concerned about your spitting up blood. Did the GI doctor do any testing? One positive thing i have learned over the many struggles is to trust my body. I have really learned my body signals, trusted my intuition and have been fairly stable with little symptoms for awhile. I do hope you feel better and find a compassionate provider.
