nibblezzI'm sure Toobin is thankful for Giuliani wanking it off in front of a young woman who he thought was 15.
What in the hell is wrong with some men?!
UGH!
...
Met with the dermatologist yesterday, actually no. I met with the physician assistant. As expected she gave me high dose topical steroids for my skin issues. For my other skin issue (acanthosis nigricans), she should have asked me a series of the following questions instead of ignoring the problem and trying to push me out:
1) Do you have diabetes?
2) Have you had a recent metabolic panel done? If so what were your A1c and fasting glucose results?
3) Have you seen an endocrinologist? If so have you been screened for Cushings?
Now I had to make ANOTHER appointment to see my primary to get a referral for an endocrinologist. Wasting more time.
Everything about my medical care is so pieced out, that it makes it hard to get PROMPT treatment. And leaving the responsibility to the patient to be the bridge between all healthcare providers is irresponsible and medical malpractice. What if I had a life threatening disease? What if I forgot to mention something vitally important about my treatment? They don't even read the patient's past history or previous test results.

Sadly. It shouldn't be that way :(
