First, don't let your doc just ignore the symptoms. It's not the best way for him to treat, nor for you!!! Do not let him ignore the symptoms, it is up to you!!! I've had to deal with something similar, but didn't do what I'm saying now, worse mistake ever!
Also if he doesn't call you, call him!!! If you feel like you are not being taken seriously, then keep calling, they may get tired of you calling, but at least you have the support that you need, when you need it.

Main thing, if you need to something addressed, don't be afraid to ask, and keep asking until you get a response.

Besides all that, I'm so glad that you asked for help, when you needed it from your T. Keep doing that, Keep trying to live your life. Keep on coming on here.
