This is the reason I was originally upset. IMHO the doctors have become unbelievably arrogant.

My physical this year was done by telemedicine. Useless right? So I asked my doctor when I could get my blood pressure taken and and goes... oh you can buy a machine at home. Excuse me? Then what do I need you for? Even now she hasn't given me a date and time for that.

I am going in a few weeks to have a cardiac calcium scan but only because she was pushing statins on me.

I used to like my doctor but I am getting angry with her.[/FONT]
