From: MSN NicknameLunarKalia  (Original Message)Sent: 10/31/2008 7:31 PM
i was busying myself waiting for her call and it came and she sounded "nice" at first but then bitingly said "i think i've been a very compassionate doctor, working with you and your very real pain, trying to cut down on the narcotics dependence, but i think it is best if you go elsewhere at this time"

i was shocked. no conversation, no chance to defend my decision to use more meds during this past month that was terrible. she knew from the beginning about the bicycle accident, the coccyx injury...she knew it all. but now she has decided i need to go. i just hung up. i didn't know what to say.

i sat and cried.

then i had a call back from the new york state dept. of human services, re; Hippa: the man almost screamed when i told him i was denied access to my own records yesterday. "NOT ONLY" he said "did she break ny state law, she is in violation of federal law too!"

isn't this great? i have no idea what to do now. i am so scrweed. no doctor, no prescription, any new internist i go to is going to hear HER version of this story, i am so upset i don't know where to turn.
