Default I HATE the PA at my doctor's office!

I really really really hate that PA. She's the moron who told me that my first MRI was clear. (she didnt read thru the entire report, 3 pages long, and didnt see in the Impression that the MRI was NOT clear...just not conclusive) A half hour after she told me the MRI was clear, my opthalmologist had called me to tell me there WAS a problem. Imagine my total panic when he told me that...he and I BOTH called my regular doctor's office to complain about that PA. She's a total ditz.

She's also the doodoo head that told me that the numbness in my right thigh that happened about four months before that MRI that the numbness in the thigh was a SPRAIN and "to put some heat on it", and insisted that icing it wouldnt help and "DONT ICE IT!". (well, it didnt help, but it didnt make things worse like heat did!)

She's also the person who gave me a Rx for an antibiotic yesterday, but wont give me a Rx for another medication to take care of the infection that that the antibiotics I'm taking for my current infection is probably causing. ("blah blah blah...that antibiotic doesnt cause THAT type of infection!...blah blah blah" )

I guess she has a house payment to make or something, says that I HAVE TO come in and see her tomorrow. (yeah right...I'm not letting her touch me, I'll get my actual doctor to see me if I have to or the really cool PA, but the idiot PA is not touching me)

I really hate the idiot PA, and I'm pretty sure she knows it. I complained about her after she told me my MRI was clear, when it wasnt, and she's been nasty to me ever since. Not my fault...if she hadnt been such a dumb <bad word> then I wouldnt have ended up complaining about her. But, I know my body, and I've been allowed to treat those other infections with a standing prescription (that just ran out) and never had a problem with getting a refill for it. Argh!

edited to add: Yay!! I was just straightening up my box of medications, and found an extra bubble pack of the med that I was whining about wanting that she wouldnt give me a Rx for. Yaaaaaaay!!! Thank goodness! Dont have to deal with her tomorrow...oh, and I found my probiotics that will help too because antibiotics give me tummy aches, and the lactobacillis is great for that for me.
