Im not gonna take it anymore.
Im being taken off the only medicine that at least halfway worked for me and being put on a cheaper medicine. Now , while my Dr. went on vacation , my old Dr. denied my refil.
I emailed this letter to my old Dr. Im so tired of everytime I get a refil I have trouble. I view my pain medicine as lifesaving medicine.
If I had Asthma or Diabetes would I have trouble getting my medicine?
Dr.( Yeh right) Beaver,
You have had a bad attitude about me from the first time I walked into your office.
Today was no exception.
Your denying me , a chronic pain patient, my much needed pain medicine, knowing full well that without it I would go into withdrawals , NOT to mention the pain I would suffer and my daughter would suffer watching me suffer.
To call yourself a Dr. is a load of xxxx. You are mean and sadistic with a God complex.
Its time to retire!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You no longer seem to be able to make rational , compassionate choices for the poor unsuspecting people who choose you to be their Dr.
I will not rest until you are held accountable for what you did to me and face disciplinary action.
You should have followed the course of treatment MY Dr. has approved.
You are no longer my Dr.

Thanks for listening to my rant.
Im just not gonna sit still and be called a druggie or a crazy person anymore.
Even though I do feel kinda crazy dealing with Dr.s and such.

Your whole family has been through a lot. All of these things would weigh heavily on anyone. I hope that your daughter gets justice against your ex. It really sucks that you move out with her to protect her and have no place to go, and he is probably sitting there in comfort. The whole system disenfranchises victims of domestic abuse (physical, emotional or sexual.) Our society clearly has a long way to go.
My concerns are the same as FadingnAustin's, but it seems that it was cathartic for you to share your feelings. I am glad your HMO sent you a form to fill out. Hopefully, they won't just bureacratically file it and forget it. The doctor will probably say that it is just a personal attack. The larger issue is, that it is quite common to go to doctors and have them do nothing to help. Heck, if we knew that in advance we wouldn't waste our time and money!
My hubby goes to a traditional Chinese doctor. He is an oncologist, a Western MD, but is now practicing with traditional herbs. You pay when you are well, a monthly rate, and don't pay when you are sick. If you are unwell, the doctor is not doing his job, in that system. I like that system!
Yes, social security is very difficult to get and time-consuming. 50 is the magic #. If you are 50-yrs-old you are NOT expected to train to do a job you have never done. 1 more year for you. And another thing... they don't care how much you normally make. If you can make more than $950 per month, social security does NOT consider you disabled. Who the heck can live on that? Not in Chicago! That's for sure.
