Quick update to my last post

[lunabee34]

I haven't finished responding to everyone's comments on my last post (which I will do soonlyish), but I wanted to thank you all for weighing in.

Josh and I talked about it, and he helped me to realize that I am letting my fears for Emma (and my incandescent rage at her pediatrician and that pediatric rheumatologist we saw) cloud my judgment.

So, I've made an appointment with the rheumatologist (Nov 3), and hopefully that will lead to some kind of diagnosis and treament for me. We'll see.

I'm so glad you have a partner you can have these conversations with. ♥

[lunabee34]

Me too.

He very calmly pointed out that I wasn't being quite rational and that I really need to go to the doctor myself. And now that I have a plan and something to look forward to, I feel a lot better.

I'm always willing to believe the worst of doctors but really, if she actually does retaliate against Emma because she doesn't like you (she would have no legitimate grievance against a patient for asking for...medical care) then you should report her to the state medical ethics regulators.

[lunabee34]

You are absolutely right. That's exactly what Josh said. And then I realized I was being irrational about this whole thing.

*hugs*

[executrix]

I wouldn't say "irrational" but...well, overthinking the situation.

[lunabee34]

That is a very gracious way of phrasing it. LOL

I'm so glad you'll be getting the help you need! That's so great! Now you just gotta live with being sick until then.

Do you want me to put you on my Circle's prayer list?

[lunabee34]

Yes, please! I will never turn down people praying for me.

[amejisuto]

Okay, I put out the call and the people in the coven are REALLY nice so you should be getting some good vibes soon!

[lunabee34]

Thank you!

*basks in the good vibes*

[amejisuto]

You're welcome, my love. I want to get you feeling better!
