What skills or lessons have you learned recently?
Ugh! So I had an appointment with the pain doctor in my gastroenterologist’s office.
He seriously spent at least 45 minutes asking me about my childhood.
I felt like I was in a therapist’s office.
I definitely had to hold my tongue.
This is not something I would have done in the past.
I felt like I was in a sparring match with this doctor to see if he could pin my pain on a psychological cause vs a physical one.
It was beyond insulting.
I was so pissed.
I poker faced it through the entire appointment and made it through without taking the bait.
I learned that I could do that.
I didn’t think I could.
