My GP who is on maternity leave.
It is time to do something drastic, because drastic times call for drastic measures, right?
It is finally time to TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF AND FIND A NEW HEALTHCARE TEAM!!!
Not tomorrow, not next week, NOW!
Any doc that passes off symptoms from a WEGENERS PATIENTand passes it off to another is a hack, and should be left like you'd leave the old magazine in your waiting room.
FIND A VASCULITIS CENTER, call someone that can get you there and GO to the ER at that facility and tell them that you are in a flare up and that your regular docs won't do anything for you.
There are great docs out there, and it sounds like yours are not those people!!!!
I'm going to stop screaming at my monitor and also stop ranting now, and you won't hear it from me like this again. We all want you to be well Nikki!
You need to take charge of your health, because no one else will do it for you!
