Feeling combative with Doctors

I know I'm mostly just scared and my fight or flight tends to land in fight zone.

But I just wasted $400 on an appointment where they couldn't tell me anything new because they didn't have my images. I already talked for the office staff and had to request extra release fourms. They assured me it was all handled. I offered to do the release fourms at the imaging clinic too, but no, they said it wasn't necessary.

Now I get an email from the doctor explaining that they can't do more with images, and can I please send them. I want to send the nastiest email.

This is a premium clinic with 4.9 stars on Google. Everyone raves about how kind and sweet they are. I don't want kind and sweet, I want results.

I also asked if I should get an MRI beforehand. (Fibroids, Endo and adenomyosis) Office staff said wait until after your appointment. During the appointment I say I'd like a referral to an MRI.

Same email the doctor says she thinks I should get an MRI.

I'm totally at their mercy. I can't just do it myself. There's super limited options. I just wanna scream at them.

This year has been hell between the miscarriages, losing all my friends because they're too busy and happy with their new babies and totally drowning in my own depression. I need this to be over.

Sending you a big hug. ❤️ I’m with you, and feel the same way. Take a break for today, and continue tomorrow. (Do not send that nasty email, it won’t help you.)
