OH! I forgot to mention this about the DR. in training.....He was a middle eastern fella in training. I had to wonder if he was forced into this line of work! He walks in the room No exchange of names, hello or anything he says So prednisone gives you diareah and cramps. Do you have swelling? A little in my feet ...Let me see please. He pokes at my foot rotates it ,jumps up and proceeds to scrub his hands for a good minute as if he just touched a deadly bacteria. I was so insulted. he had me unbutton my pants and very roughly pushed into my abdomen.????? I wanted to slap him so bad. he wouldnt even look me in the eye! I asked him a question and he acted as if i should just sit there and be silent and let him put his assesments into the computer, all the while his phone kept going off he would stop and read his texts. I was so discusted! I hope when his internship is done he goes back to where he came from. yuuuukkkkk I should have told the senior DR. but i had a big lump in my throat and thought i need to just let it go or ill work myself into a terrible flare~up.
