Well, like every doctors appointment I've had, this one left me confused and disappointed. I went to a new GP at the clinic on base, because I wanted a second opinion on my options. Well, this one ripped me apart it seemed. She said that most people with depression problems feel like they have issues going on that aren't. She put me on zoloft and said I should feel fine in three weeks....
When I brought up the fact that my small intestine hasn't been tested, she told me it doesn't need to be. That colonoscopys are the test that would show crohns. She said I have had plenty of tests and that I am just fine. I was shocked that she she was just passing me off....
So I have been on zoloft two days now and I really don't like it. My eyes are dialated, I have a headache, and my D is so much worse. Plus I wasn't able to sleep at all last night.
I so want to just give up at this point. I didn't think I could get any lower than where I was before, but she really treated me like I was crazy. She did request an appointment for me with a GI at the military hospital, but she said there was a really slim chance they will approve it since I am just a spouse. She said I could try another German GI after that if I wanted to.
So now I get to wait another three weeks. After how bad I have felt this week (before the zoloft) I am sad that no one seems to think its serious. I wonder how far this will go before its all figured out?
