Still waiting....grrrr
Well, I have been waiting for 3 weeks to make an appt with my pd and was told to wait until my nurse got back from holidays, so that's what I did after trying didn't avenues that didn't work. So I was told she would call right away immediately when she got into work today first day back, but she didn't call right away or any way just like I figured she wouldn't. So now I need to make a decision what to do next? Still can't sleep taking gravel. I can't go over my nurses head so I am stumped? If I count my losses and get arid of my nurse I will likely lose my pd in the process. Here in BC you can't see a pd unless your life is in danger last resort so over the years I have been lucky to have one and I am worried about jepordizing that. My family doc would take over my treatment except I don't want to go thru that again because yrs ago my family doc treated me with anti depressents for 8 yrs unsuccessfully until I saw a pd who got me on the right meds, I kinda don't trust family docs with brain stuff anymore you know. But I could keep getting my prescriptions thru family doc and self medicate when needed? I could also pretend I'm carzy and go off my meds lol just kidding really. So any avice what I could do? I need to way my options before doing anything but I need all the input I can get. I haven't put a post on the boards cause I feel it would take too much explaining. xoxo

Hey Pulpit, listen I\'m not in nearly as deep as you and many of the others here at DS so I really can\'t in good conscience give you any helpful advice. I\'m sorryy you\'re getting the runaround by the system here and I understand how hard it is to get a GP let alone a pdoc here on the island.
I would recommend that you reach out on the boards, just the general discussion board will do as I see you holding your own as best you can and are not in \"crisis\". Open up, be yourself, rant, ask for other\'s advice and perspective and above all spend a little time just jammin with the good people you\'ll find there. (when you\'re in the mood)
That\'s all I got for now...\'cept a big hug and a smile. Just a little friendly advice, no biggie but if you\'re avi makes someone like me just a tad nervous...think about how it makes some of the more anxious members...just say\'n k? Please don\'t hate me for saying so...for all know you had it made special for you. TTYL
