I'll admit I've been lax and haven't been to my neuro in almost 2 years because I had a nice long 18 month break from the beast but now that it's back again, I need help. All of my meds are expired and I need to get a script for more. I called my wonderful neuro's office and he is on vacation and then booked for 2 weeks so I went to see another member of his practice. Now he had my medical records IN FRONT OF HIM and looked dead at me and said, "I realize that Dr. ___ thinks you have clusters but in my experience women don't get them so therefore I want to order an MRI, blah, blah, blah, blah!" I just looked at him, said Thanks Anyway and I'd wait the two weeks until my doctor comes back. GRRRRRRRRRR

Thanks for listening to me rant.

Susan
