someone who won't listen to anyone but himself

medicine is ever changing...

he may just rely on what worked 30 years ago

yes... it takes forever and a day to see a specialist

i'm just glad you finally got an appt

@Yahooey :  The cardiologist that I will be seeing is also a primary care doctor per the office website. I will be asking her a lot of questions .

I went back on the patient portal for

my primary care and more blood work results were listed. Three more things high. But my CO2 was low 17????!!😮🙄

My
"thyroid"

has caused  soooo many health problens   for me ..  either it goes too low,  or then goes to 2 high  or opposite!

My thyroid has been like that for over a year now...from  pill doesage  pills  of.75 to. 50 .Now back to the .50 pill again...i go back in 3 months for another blood test!

My test report shows

I m getting close for kidney problems   from what my last 2 blood testing showed because   its related of my age  it stated.

I do drink a lot of water  and have cut back on my pop drinking.

Sometimes we get so worried over while reading tests results  and sometimes dr. don't seem concerned..SMH! 

Maybe they don't wan't to worry us perhaps??  They don't want us to read to much  maybe?

lubs ya!

Hello @cowboy sam, @SouthernBee, and all friends,

So happy that cowboy Sam's meds are on the way.  Maybe I am just too old to remember how things used to work.  Or is it memory failure?

And happy that Bee's gotten a cardio appointment, but has to wait until August 1st.  I do believe we have a shortage of doctors in our country.  Even though I live in a populated area, and three large hospitals right here, waiting to get an appointment with a specialist is like trying to meet the Pope.

And a number of our family doctors (mine included) can take

no more patients.  I have my ideas of how to start to fix this,  but who would listen to me?

Oh well, as the great philosopher my late cousin Phil once said, "The only thing golden about your old age is the color of your pee."  Oh how I miss her!  She was a riot.

@PamfromCT 

your late cousin sounds like my late sis Bert  and her sense of humor....

like you i miss her soo much!

🤗lubs ya!

Hi Y'all: Interesting morning. Arrived for eye appointment. In the waiting room tv on and on QVC. They were selling ladies underwear. Embarrassing. The waiting room full and 3/4 were men.

Had to wait 30 minutes. Chairs very uncomfortable and lower back and hips hurting. DH took his jacket off and put in my chair around my lower back.❤❤❤

Went in one room and answered a lot of questions and lady started eye test. Moved to another room and two eye test done. Moved to my doctors exam room. Nurse dilated my eyes. Back and hips really hurting. Doctor finally came in. He didn't do any more eye test. He checked both eyes. He calls my left eye: Lazy eye. He stated that eye is worse and the cateracts are worse. Plus right eye cataract  not ready for surgery but needs to start seeing me every  6 months and told to start using eye drops everyday. Didn't return home until 12:30 p.m.Totally worn out🤗❤🙏
