So....I just got off the phone with Dr. Santos, and I can honestly say that I'm pissed. Maybe it's just me being overly-sensitive, but I got the feeling that he's kinda given up.
Of COURSE he can't figure out why I have diarrhea. Funny thing about these doctors...initially, they claim that there's no reason that anything they're doing can be causing problems. They're there to HELP after all, right???? I call bullshit. Why isn't he concerned that I might be dehydrated, or losing more nutrients than I can afford to lose? I'm taking 80mg of lasix and shitting liquid. It seems reasonable to me to be concerned, no?
He's sending me to a GI doctor, and lab stuff for a stool sample (fun). And then the GI doctor will probably want to do a colonoscopy. Wow, life just keeps getting better and better, doesn't it?
