Well, that was anticlimactic
Feb. 20th, 2014 03:59 pmI thought I had taken an appointment for a check-up. Turns out, the first appointment with this doctor/family clinic is considered a "meet and greet." I was pretty disappointed. For one thing, no hors d'oeuvres, no cheese, no crackers, no veggies and dip, and no drinks. For a meet and greet, it was seriously sub-par. :P
The verdict is "come back in two months and we'll address it then," which was quite frankly not the response I was hoping for. Still, at least it's going to be addressed? Mostly this appointment was about paperwork and taking my non-existent family medical history. It's always funny to see the look on doctors' faces when I tell them I have no family medical history to give them. Closed adoptions will do that, yo.
I suppose that in the grand scheme of things, two months isn't too long to wait, especially considering how long I went without a gp at all. It's because I got my hopes up that things were actually going to move forward, and having to wait another two months before we even begin to acknowledge that there's a problem is demoralising. Another two months of brain fog and pissing off![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
pdaughter because I can't keep things straight in my mind and making stupid mistakes at work, and after that even more time while we wait for test results, which the doctor indicated she would probably do when the time comes.
*sigh*
Well, I'm not the only person with troubles, and mine are lesser than most, so I guess I shouldn't complain. It's just a little frustrating to still be denied answers after all this time.
