Dr. appt. completely pointless: New doctor spent waaay too long snarking on my purple hair. for fuck's sake. get over it. HIS hair was ugly and funny looking too but you don't see me being rude about it.
Doctor B.'s attitude: Why are you here? you are getting better.
Me: But why is this happening? Do I really have strep or am I just a carrier? What is going on? Why the headache? Connected to the strep or not?
Doctor: I dont know, I don't know, I don't know, etc. Come back when you are completely better and we'll see if you are still a strep carrier. Maybe you should see a neurologist.
Me: Um..... *do not cry in doctors office, do not, do not, do not*
Doctor: So, go home and go to bed. Maybe you just have a headache from having a sore throat.
Me: Um, this was and is so far beyond "a headache"...
Doctor: Maybe it's migraines that are triggered when you get sick. Maybe it's viral mening1tis. Maybe you don't have strep at all, and never did. Maybe it's cluster headaches. Have you been depressed?
Me: No, never! Not until I got a headache that made me vomit and not be able to open my eyes for 3 days.
Doctor: Come back when you feel better and we'll run some tests. *Giant Waves of You Are a Hypochondriac Hysteric Emanate From Doctor*
Me: *leaves, feeling pointless*
