Well, I had my appointment. This other doc--not my usual--was weird, as usual, LOL, but in kind of a good way. Besides that being his personality and bedside manner, he also wore his Looney Tunes Bugs Bunny tie! They took blood as I knew they would because it's been a long time since that's been done. BUT! Ugh, I have to go back because the doctor ordered a test they didn't do! They were already closed for the day by the time I got the message so I'll have to call back in the morning. I was told that if I called back I wouldn't need an appointment, I could just walk-in, and she left the phone number. So that's all I can say on that.

One thing I have a slight issue with is it seemed his first and primary assumption is...the stigma of having psych issues. (Surely it must be depression, right?! I need to see a "shrink", as he put it.) PULLEASE! Sometimes I hate medical doctors. Psychologists I love. Medical doctors almost need to stick to medicine and leave mental health to "the shrinks".
