I've about had it with people these days!  Understatement!
 
I've stayed indoors by the phone over 2 days waiting on 2 Drs who
said they'd be returning my urgent calls ... only for no call!  So I call again...
nothing.
 
After 18 years of having an AD card info in my purse ... it has disappeared.
So I call today and the lady sounded like I interrupted her having sex.
A "Perturbed" "God I have to take this call" attitude!
 
I just don't get it!  I try to be as friendly & upbeat only to get an attitude
or people not doing their job!
 
Here it is Friday and just made a 3rd call to have my new Urologist (who
was anxious to live up to his reputation for me - his words) still call me
back since Monday!  I tell the nurses or whomever that I NEED answers, etc.
It's like I don't exist after they get $$$
 
And my regular Dr who I found out just lied to me!  Probably why he's
not calling me back.
 
I really feel like I'm living in a 3rd world country or something!

i have a little card that describes what AD is and i carry it with me.  most of the doctors/nurses/caregivers don't have a clue about it.  here is a site about it.
