I just went through this. It's really tough.

My PCP sent me to a specialist to set up a test that I did not want to have, but needed because of some suspicious test results.

I knew I needed to tell the specialist because I'd be freaking out, and being "so far" into therapy I figured I could handle it. I finally got up the guts to tell her and she totally blew it off and acted like I never even spoke. She kinda of giggled nervously, and moved on. I was furious and very upset.

I made an appointment to see my PCP just to talk to her about it because I needed to know how serious the issue was and if there was any other way to deal with it because I had issues with abuse. I didn't want to get into any details, but for me to say that to two doctors within one week was HUGE for me.

I finally had to write something down on paper that explained why I was freakin' out. She read it and gave me a big hug and said "we'll figure something out."

Whew.
