These last 2 days have been so bad for me.. First I go to see a new primary care dr cause my old one left..and he acted like he didnt know what he was doing..he left me sitting in a cold room (my fingernails were even turning blue) i was freezing!.. he said be right back and came back almost 30 mins later .. he said "i forgot u were in here sorry" ..he was seeing another patient!.. so then i start telling him how the amitriptyline helps sometimes for my pain (what they think is fibro)..and he gave me flexeril to take twice daily on top of that with the amitriptyline (25 mg), im already a walking zombie, i sleep sooo much, i have major dark circles, im pale all the time, i feel drugged up.. so when i said "so do i have fibro?" he said "i dont know, come back in 2 months" (this has been going on for 10 months now).. so another dr comes in and says "your weight is a big part of it" so i told her 'how do u expect me to lose weight when you have me drugged up all the time, i have no energy, i sleep all day, i have no appetite or anything" and she goes "well i really think you have fibro".. soo i asked my dr after she left..if i should see a rheumatologist and he says no, wait 2 months.. so today i call anyways to see if i need a referral and they said yeah..so my sister calls back and keeps complaining til the secretary gives in and makes me an appt for a specialist..then she goes "her weight is making it worse, all we can do is give her pain pills and send her on her way..it never goes away" so my sis went off on her and said the same thing about how can i lose weight if i dont have energy to move.. so when she hung up, i started crying, i already feel huge as it is, im in too much pain to move sometimes .. i stay in bed almost all day.. i feel like the fatigue is taking over my life.. everytime i see a dr they blame my weight..that makes me feel soo low .. does anyone have any advice or opinions on what i can do?? any light exercises or anything? im tired of them blaming my weight for it all, yet they keep drugging me up..
