Just when I thought that I couldnt trust doctors less, they went and proved me wrong, again. Ok, so you remember that I said I had decided to go to a doctor at the place my parents go, to have my mole checked? I decided to do that because I still have no idea who I want to actually be my doctor, I thought this place took Medicaid, Ive been there before, and I really wanted to get this looked at now. Toast called and made me an appointment for 9:15am today. I wasnt thrilled about that. As you know I dont usually get up until 1pm, so it would be like a normal person who gets up at 7 or 8am, getting up at 2 or 3 in the morning to go to the doctors. It was that or wait a few months, so I took what I could get.
When Toast made the appointment the receptionist told him that she wasnt sure if they took my Medicaid (I have Medicaid plan, not just regular Medicaid), but that she would look into it and call back if there was a problem. She did not call back but we did get a call to confirm my appointment. You would assume that that meant there wasnt a problem, right? Wrong. We got there, signed in, and she started to enter my insurance info, and lo and behold, they dont take my insurance, and I need to go somewhere else. Are you fucking kidding me? How am I ever supposed to trust anything a doctor says when this is how all of my experiences go? Apparently, when anyone at a doctors office tells you that they need to check on something and will call you, what they really mean is that you should just go somewhere else because the second you leave or hang up the phone theyre going to forget you ever existed.
Im pissed. This wasnt only an inconvenience for me but for Toast and my dad too. Toast had to get up early and go with me, and dad had to get up early and take us. You know how yesterday I said that Ive been having a hard time falling asleep again? Well, Ive been falling asleep between 6 and 7am, but since I had to get up at 8, I didnt fall asleep at all. With the way that Ive been feeling already, no sleep is really not what I need. Im tired, I feel sick, the anxiety is still just as high. Fuck.
