Sasafrasumsuckarukum foos !!!
I finally get a copy of my blood test back.
I SPECIFCALLY asked for a check on magnesium levels.
I said I want SEE them.
What did I get?
A report that says:
Flag: White blood count high
Flag: Monocytes low
What do I say?
"DUH!"
What does the report say about Mg levels?
Notta thing. (Sheesh!)
What is written on the report that is wrong with me?
Patient has SLE (a.k.a. Lupis)
Me again:
"Yeah right ya bleepin' bleepin' bleeps!"
I do not have Lupis, this is not a denial thing, I
just don't have it. Lupis covers hundreds of symptoms
one of which even comes close...headaches.
I don't have headaches, I'm beginning to hate that
term. I have Clusters!!! My head doesn't ache, my head
is being ripped to shreds!
To top it all off, after my last appointment, I was
all prepared to explain to my doc why I still haven't
taken any of the meds he prescribed...uh..but...hmmmm..
maybe he JUST FORGOT! to even ask if they were doing
any good????
Time to find another doctor.
Will be glad to see the neurologist on the 10th.
(Course that is if they remember to get the referal
approved by then! They were supposed to have done that
over a week ago!)
This concludes my pissing:
We now return you to your regular Dave:
" I've got high titers, I've got hiiiigh titers...
come on everyone sing!"
(Note to Peter & Doug: that's titers...not titties!
So no grabbin' at me now) : )
Dave
