She actually pushed for an early bronch/biopsy which discovered my mild rejection.CFstephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12808675789017622773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8186035020364406793.post-69658427472731804262010-05-21T11:33:09.600-04:002010-05-21T11:33:09.600-04:00Hi -

I received mine 12.5 years and am lucky to still have an FEV1 of 100%.<br /><br />I have been followed at BWH for 11 plus years and of course know of whom you speak. I have actually had very good interactions with her and think it might be worth another chance. Just my 2 cents.<br /><br />Good LuckAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8186035020364406793.post-243478880961015852010-04-17T11:40:41.431-04:002010-04-17T11:40:41.431-04:00Hi - You do not know me but I've been followin...Hi - You do not know me but I've been following your blog for a while. I also have CF and have been to B&W to start the lung transplant process. The first doctor I saw was this woman you are referring to - I went through all of the evaluation procedure and then she called me AT WORK to tell me the results of all the reasons they couldn't list me right then. I cried all the way home on the train it was awful. I feel really bad she treated you like that - I wish she understood how new all of this is to you and could be more comforting.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8186035020364406793.post-28012989234125357192010-04-15T07:14:46.024-04:002010-04-15T07:14:46.024-04:00There's a doctor a lot like this at my clinic,...There's a doctor a lot like this at my clinic, we just asked the secretary to schedule us for days with my doc, and it became such a problem that now if you only want my doc you get a sticker on your chart. You definitely dint have to deal with her again! She sounds obnoxious.Emmanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8186035020364406793.post-37990009867263514872010-04-15T06:43:19.302-04:002010-04-15T06:43:19.302-04:00God Bless you!

I have been known to make surgeons stand with their nose in the corner for throwing 3 year old temper tantrums. <br /><br />You know you can absolutely refuse to have this doctor treat you. There is nothing she can do about it. You can also report her attitude to the "Risk Management" depratment @ the hospital - they may call it something else there, but the people who try to talk folks out of suing the crap out of them. LOL!<br /><br />Anyway, you have been through enough without having to be stressed out about seeing this doc when you go in. I would ask your regular doc that she not be allowed to treat you from now on. I tis your perrogative.<br /><br />Good luck! We will keep you in our prayers!<br /><br />Steph & Christopher<br />www.ourlittlemanhasmoore.blogspot.comStephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04445611514793769030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8186035020364406793.post-39644868246904189742010-04-14T23:04:33.221-04:002010-04-14T23:04:33.221-04:00What a piece of work this DrDD is!!! Clashing wit...What a piece of work this DrDD is!!! Clashing with doctors is not good for your mental health and stress levels, which is also not good for your physical health... If I were you, I would make an appointment specifically with the head guy or Dr. Camp (I'm not sure if they're one in the same...) And <b><i>ask</i></b> him innocently whether you can <b><i>not</i></b> see DrDD at your clinic appointments -- pose the question in a very sincere way, not flippant or bitchy... He will very likely ask you why -- and your door is open...<br /><br />Write yourself a little, consise note of your interactions with her and what bothered you -- and read them to him if you have to... Don't make it a bitch session or venting session -- list the things that bother you... She speaks down to you - she gives you vague, insufficient answers - you feel she's generally negative in her approach... You are a <b><i>professional patient</i></b> with your CF -- you've been a patient, in a medical environment far longer than she's been in medicine (I'm kinda making the leap of faith that she's young...)<br /><br />Don't ask for advance notice to prepare for her -- honestly tell them that you do not want to be cared for by her...<br /><br />I hope you're doing well, Steph!!! <br /><br />Love, SteveBreathinStevenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13425167024998690437noreply@blogger.com
