It's horrible to be labeled a drug seeker
But it's definitely not on my list of places to go unless I think it's a huge emergency.

I hope you are feeling better, and that you get the results from your tests soon.

I begin to realize though that I have a tendency to neglect my own well-being when I focus on work. That's the big deal. I must learn to not let my work overshadow my well-being.

I was in such a twilight zone of pain though that I don't know if it was really as I remember it. But it absolutely did seem as though he had a seriously negative attitude towards me, and I'm pretty sure they did a drug test on me too to see how drugged up I was. (yes, I took two extra oxycontin, I was in serious PAIN).

I had a taste of feeling like the doctors were at least wondering if I was a drug seeker when I spent that entire YEAR fighting that severe, mysterious belly pain and ended up in the ER several times (and all they kept doing was giving me CT scans which always showed nothing). When I finally had the exploratory surgery to find out what was going on, I was more worried that the surgeon wouldn't find anything (and that then they would definitely think I was just after the pain meds) than I was about what she might find! When I awoke after surgery and asked what they found, my only thought was "Thank God. At least now they know I wasn't making it up!"
I hope you get all these medical issues resolved soon!
