I thought my appt. was at 9am but it was at 7am so I didn't get to see my GI today. I am very upset with myself. I am in a flare right now and tapering off prednisone at 25mg as of now. I was in the hospital a month ago for this flare and this would have been the first time I would have seen my GI. I was hoping to start Humira . The next available appt. is the end of July. I just want to cry ! I feel awful all the time. My GI never gets back to me when I call and it's impossible to get in to see him.I have a question - Are all GI's like this ? When you are hospitalized does it take you a month or longer to get an appt with your GI ? When you call with new symptoms do they say they can see you in 6 weeks ? I feel like my flare is NOT undercontrol and my GI just doesn't care. A trip to the ER usually provides more answers than an appt. with my GI. I have tried to find a new doctor but am stuck with this guy due to my insurance. I pissed off at myself for having the appt. time wrong and fustrated that my GI can't take 5 min. to talk with me. :ymad:
