Sorry to hear that Well, if it were me, I'd still go to the appointment and try to talk about it. The worst case scenario for me is that I'd have wasted my copay listening to the "ErMahGerd" speech and leave feeling irritated. Which, for me, doesn't outweigh the possibility that the appointment would be helpful.

What's the worst case scenario for you, if you go to your appointment/make an appointment and try to talk about these things? Does it outweigh the possibility that the appointment might be helpful?
