You Know you have the WRONG DR when~~~

[selmaS]

This is just like you know you have chiari when.....

but this time it is...about having the wrong NL or NS......

like when u call to make the appointment and the nurse asks you to spell chiari several times......that's a clue right there........

This is another thread we did last yr....complete the sentence : )

When you go in multiple times for multiple symtoms and without looking at your chart the urgent care doctor tells you that you need to be on anti-depressants, even worse when I only met him three minutes before.

I also had my PCP call and ask me how to spell Chiari!   She just left the hospital and I have been assigned a new doctor.

he suggests you look in the phone book to find a neurologist since there are so many

When you ask your NL what she can tell you about Chiari and she responds that she does not know much but she does know you do not need surgery!

We really need to find a way to get people from the NL to the NS once diagnosis of Chiari is made, my NS told me that of course the NL would not know about Chiari.. THEY CAN'T TREAT IT... her words, not mine!!!
