The issue is that they are the ones I now should go to for my yearly checkup for the autoimmune thing. So yea I can say this is on you guys now, and really wish hard he will not ask when I was last. Because it is the last labs that are missing. Starting totally anew isn't possible since this doc is supposed to do my yearly checkup for something already diagnosed many years ago. I just had checkups other places.

I hope there is some note in the swiss-cheese records that say I was actually sent from the rheumy to a GP or he might not feel it's on him to do that.

But you are right, I shant start up mentioning the screwups, but if I have to, I need to mention them. I realized I cannot lie. But if I can go through an appointment without mentioning it I will. Probably the best way.

Hopefully he will also run a standard liver and kidney panel which I need for the psych med I'm on. Sometimes they do that anyway.

He will know what meds I take, they are in the computer system.

So I will just innocently say yea I'm here for the pulse thing and it is nothing I have noted at checking at home, so it is probably nothing, and by the way I need both my yearly lupus check and a check for my thyroid med.

I hope that goes over well.

I do not mean I would go there and whine. I don't need a therapist for that. What I was talking about was I felt I needed to explain the missing data the new doc should have and he doesn't. I'm a bit scared I will go there and just act normal and he will point a finger at me asking me why I haven't been on checkups in three years (how it looks on the records). Whatever I say to that, lie or truth, will brand me as a bad patient.

Our GPs do a lot of specialist work theses days because specialists have become rarer. He actually only does have 15 minutes with me so I have no idea how to squeeze all this in. He knows I don't have a steady GP because no one has where I live. The thing is he should have a referral for that but it too is missing.

So yea I too hope it goes well.
