UGH!!

Today was another visit to my final and last neurologist. i won't say his name for fear of unecessary hoopla. Anyway, let me just say that i am sure being a doctor and a specialist has got to be a very taxing profession. Most SPECIALSITS, that i have dealt with have a bed side manner of a PIT BULL. Has any one seen Patch Adams???lol. C'mon guys and gals for that matter, if you hate your job, quit. This guy i saw today is suppose to be the premier specialist dealing with my type of illnes. If anyone reading this knows me, you know that i like to joke, cut up, mess around. This guy was having none of it. I respect professionalism, but it is not necessary to look down upon your patients. Or, treat them like cattle. I am so tired of it. And that is all i have to say about that. He confirmed my diagnosis of LBD. He is giving me some tests to help with my treatment options. I was not sure what to expect from appointment today, maybe i expected too much, like the pearly gates of wisdom and information to open up and give us some hope. Actually HOPE is good, sometimes that is all we have. But, if i could, i would reach out to each and every specialist just like Patch Adams did and give them the hope and desire to provide more than just a diagnosis. My dog George makes me smile, i want to be just like him, putting smiles on all of those faces.
