Hmm. Quite controlling, eh? He also wants me to 'stop by' on Monday before her appt and pick up the actual x rays to take with me. I think he doesn't want anyone else to see his work.
I'm getting really bad vibes from all this and you guys have reinforced it. It's bringing back memories of a terrible surgical outcome I had one time - and all the secrecy and arm twisting that went along with it. And the paranoia of the doctors who treated me - regardless if it was their fault (and I never pointed fingers or filed a lawsuit) . . they were still horribly PARANOID. I had to cross state lines to get a second opinion - because they would all just call my first surgeon AND he would tell them I was lying. Or crazy. No one wanted me to get a second opinion. And it took some time and effort to figure out why. It can never be fixed and I've moved on but this whole weirdness is reminding me of it.
I really hope Lucy can be helped by the specialist. I hope that he or she wants to follow her consistently and help us through this problem. I hope that she does not need another surgery.
Fingers crossed - my appt is Tuesday and I'll update you then!
Sorry I went off on a tangent. Luckily, there is a small animal hospital that is opening - practically right out my back door! |
Yes, I do think he lied. Perhaps I am wrong, but I don't think so. As for stopping by for the xrays, take someone with you. Do NOT let this man intimidate you. That crap about the recorded call was intimidation..there was NO reason for that.
I also hope she does not need another surgery.
