Don't you just hate when that happens!!! Sound like you are on your way through this journey. Have you been on the fibro board yet? I may have posted with you there, sorry I can't remember anything. Hang in there, there are great people here to help you.

Hello angels,

Welcome. Firstly, I am so glad that you are on the way to getting sorted out. Come here any time you need to, you will always be supported in all ways by people who totally understand you.

Secondly, what a rude and ignorant woman. How dare she even think of speaking to patients like this. I am sorry, but I personally would report her. She is so definitely in the wrong job.

The main thing though is to try (I know it is difficult) not to let too many things stress you out. Let you husband tell the doctor's office about the mistreatment you received. We can all have bad days but manners cost us nothing.

Please come back soon.
