I recently set up a bunch of appointments on the off chance we lose ACA benefits sometime soon. I noticed a lot of people are doing this & even 'buying out' their prescriptions for like birth control so they'll have a year's worth.
Could you do Cologuard in place of your colonoscopy? That was the only positive thing my last PCM allowed me to do, thankfully. Otherwise, I would've continued to avoid it like the plague only because my body doesn't do well with anesthesia. For some reason, it takes it literally & thinks we intend to go permanently night-night. I'm kinda scared to mention this next time I invariably need surgery because then the opposite will happen & they won't give me enough yet I'll be immobilized & only screaming in my head. In which case I'd prefer what I've been experiencing. It's a no-win for me, I swear. But I digress.
Geez - after 2 incorrect 'diagnoses', I would've questioned if he was reading the correct chart! And the fact that he was just skimming it :smh:
