I saw the company doctor today. I told him about me wanting a B-vitamin shot and an MRI to checks for MS. I said I was asking him as I was running into a wall with my GP. He basically told me that I had to sort it out with my GP, or change GP.
Then he gave me the good old talk about how when nothing has shown in tests, it is in the head, and when I told him that he and other doctors had a tendency to forget that anxiety is ALSO caused by a whole host of conditions and sideffects, he got really sore, and wanted to quit the conversation, as I was "putting words in his mouth". Then I told him that he really couldnt be that sensitive in his line of work, and that unlike him I knew and had lived with anxiety for 17 years, and would know the difference between nerve pains and anxiety. And then I quit the conversation.
This would be an appropriate space for some swearwords to describe how impressed I am with doctors.
All I wanted was at least a vitamin B shot, and then maybe if I was lucky a referal to MS MRI. Apparently not something I deseved.
