Title: Scared...new doc on tuesday...
Post by LittleMmonkey on Nov 7^th, 2002, 12:15am

Moved to a new and very small town.
miss nancy nurse, I found a new family doc, and I am so nervouse....more than if I were going for a pap with a new male doc....I just hope he knows all about ch....I am bringin him all the info I have, but who knows. I am not in a cycle now, so I dont know if he will do anything.
Just wanted to ask for prayers from those who pray, and want to let everyone know that I am here if ya need to vent......I love to try and help, even if I dont have the answers, but most of all, I want to be a friend to those who need someone to turn to. Thank you all for being so supportive. And best wishes to all you chronics.....hope you suddenly turn episodic.
love dawn

I was very lucky. I was already seeing a neurologist. It was diagnosed almost immediately. All I can say is: As this is a GP, go well-armed. Warm up your printer and take what you think may be relevant. Take a lot. Insist that he "get it" and that you're serious.

My town isn't all that big but our ER staff all know of this thing. I was very surprised. Here's hoping you have similar good luck

Tell us how you did.

Dawn,
Good vibes headed your way.
Good luck, you got the BEST ammo!! At least he'll have a warning, you mean business, when your cycle hits.

I live in a very small town, but the local small hospital ER staff are all very knowledgeable with CH which surprised me. They know more than any of the other docs I've seen including the neuro!

Good luck and hope all goes well

Dawn,

Here's wishing you good luck, girl.

I hate going to new Dr.s, your making the right move though, getting acquanted before your really in need and finding out he doesn't know a thing!!!!
