Another Dr. Appointment

I bet all of you have felt this way at sometime in your life - another Dr's. appointment - seriously - I really don't want to go!! Of course we know it's necessary but that doesn't mean we want to go. When you have a chronic illness, sometimes you have Dr. appointments more than once a month. I think the most I've ever had was 3 appointments in 1 month - YUCK!! This month I had 2 appointments - one was my Primary MD - just routine stuff and the second my Rheumatologist - my Sjogren's/Fibromyagia MD - he is an EXCELLENT MD and I love him but.....the exam is very extensive, there are usually lab tests and news about insurance paying for new treatments. SO when it's over 2 hrs later I am definitely in pain, my arm is full of holes, a bit depressed about last visits lab results and frustrated about the insurance companies latest denial. Guess what I have 2 more appointments in the next  3 weeks so I better get a better attitude about it! If I think positive who knows maybe I'll get some good news!
