Ugh. 2nd appt in a week, and back to back. VERY stressful [View all]
Yesterday was with my therapist. That I looked forward to. He is such a kind man.
Today is a follow up medical appointment with the THIRD hcp in 6 months. My original one retired. She was an APN and I was beginning to trust her. The next one is an MD. Too early to tell with her but she is nice. AND on a leave of absence!!! So now I'm seeing a NP (I think she's an NP). I am going to let her know that when you have the degree of redlining medical anxiety that I endure, this isn't a good situation. It's just for a blood pressure check so I see no reason why future such appointments can't just be 'remote' visits.
I'm a wreck and about to take my anxiety medication, hoping it will make even the slightest dent.
This has been a major topic of discussion with my therapist. I've given him permission to share our sessions with my medical provider so I wonder if he sent something, last night.
When I get home I will be heading straight to bed because this absolutely drains me.
