| Is there a doctor in the house? |
| 09.09.05 (7:46 pm) [edit] |

Doctor's appt today. Opthamologist to check my retinas - something about granules in them and the stroke. (No clue what the heck the neurologist was talking about.) Packed my big bottle of water, charged my MP3 player and brought a fresh book. Ended up waiting for FIVE HOURS. Well, first 2 1/2 hours, then the nurse dialated my eyes, making it impossible to read or fiddle with the tunes or see anything. But there was this crazy woman sitting next to me, speaking in spanish (to me) endlessly. I thought she was just crazy woman talking to herself, but apparently she was under the impression that I 'habla espanol'. I said repeatedly "NO habla espanol". Apparently, to her, that counts as fluent in spanish. One would think with earphones on, that the other party (who is speaking spanish) would get the picture. But nooooooooooo. She just talked louder. I got up (to presumably go to the bathroom or start to seek sleeping arrangements for the evening) and relocated myself. Madame Espanol moves next to me again. The waiting room has seating for say 50 people - and there are plenty of spare seats but I was apparently the lucky one. Eventually, I get called back to see the dr. By this time, the dilation drugs are wearing off. I could focus enough to see that my eye doctor was pretty much a hottie. He was fascinated by my history and kept calling other doctors back to talk about my case. (Such a shame I was not girlified for the appt - I had come for comfort, not seduction.) I can't tell you if there was a ring on his finger or not - my eyes still couldn't focus that well. I'll let you know when I go back on Wednesday to see him. I *will* make a point of checking. He promised me that it would not be an all-day affair like today. As cute as he was, it was not worth the 5 hour wait. |

I got a little taste of hell today. Thought you might enjoy it. http://dstar.tblog.com/
I still haven't heard from my wife and I am afraid to go looking for her. You will know what I mean after you read it.

wow the doctors there are sure not very considerate of the patients, are they? you sure seem to spend a lot of time growing old in the waiting rooms. glad the doc was at least semi worth the wait.

So what does that make you?
a) Spineless
b) stupid (because 'hispanic is an ethnicity and not a race, hence my comments were not racist)
c) an ass
d) all of the above
I know who you are - and one day, when the mood strikes me, I'll out your ass. In the interim, I take great pleasure in knowing your life must be pretty damn pathetic to waste energy with such drivel you scrape up.

I don't have a choice in the situation. If I did, I can assure you that I would have.

Another dr's appt this morning. Spent over 4 hours waiting. And the doc I saw was incorrectly reciting my history to the attending - I tried to correct her - they were talking like I wasn't even there and completely disregarded me - pissed me off bigtime.

wow, the medical system there sounds horrid! I understand the waits, due to staffing issues but it seems you get to be penalized at every appointment. Stand up for your rights, including the right to be treated in a dignified and professional manner.
