If I didn't need my dermatologist so much I'd have smacked him repeatedly. Daft idiot bugger. I had a horrible session with him a month ago where he was of zilch, nada, zero help to my skin plight. Today I went in with a list of questions. His answers only infuriated me further.

I was just leaving for my dermatologist appointment this morning when his secretary phoned to say he wouldn't be in his office today. What the hell does that mean? Does that mean 'I have better things to do then look at rashes, acne problems and warts all day?' Or does it mean 'I got a better offer?' Or 'I'm sick?'

I'm annoyed. Now I have to wait another week for him to look at my back. At least this gives me more time to consider the evils that is known as Accutane. To take it or not to take it... *Weighs her options*

Silly me, if I had remembered properly, I would have got gas for mom's car before my dermatologist appointment. I completely forgot about the liquid nitrogen treatment for my toe. Oh my god, the pain. Not nice. But still, thank goodness for full service because I definitely didn't want to stand up quite so soon after getting my big toe jabbed with something akin to a cattle prod. O_O

Other then that uneventful day. My dad's coming back from Alabama tonight from a golfing trip; he's been gone for a week and I must say, it's been a little too quiet for my tastes. A bit of quiet is good but yeah, a presence is definitely lacking. LOL

And this... service that we're holding for my uncle is tomorrow. It's not the funeral, it's not the visitation - it's... something I can't remember the word for. Damn, mom did tell me the word but I forgot it.

I need to phone my friend, find out how she's enjoying her new house.

By the love of cheese, so much has happened to me since the holidays but due to my horrible short-term memory everything has gone by in bits and pieces. So I will start with ranting about dermatologists.

1. Dermatologists, like all doctors, get paid by the prescription they write. So when I phone them in December for a new prescription of the same medicine I've been taking they tell me to make an appointment in order to get the prescription. No, I can't have the pharmacy phone in a request because they must be paid the BIG BUCKS of writing a prescription instead of the SMALLER BUCKS.

2. Their secretaries are beyond stupid. I knew I made an appointment before the phone-call in December, I just couldn't remember the date other then it was in January. She said I didn't have an appointment and proceeded to book me for the nineteenth of January. So you can imagine my annoyance when I had to phone them back and cancel one of the two appointments that were both made for the nineteeth - only four hours apart. *Growls*

3. The sheer annoyance they provoke when they go on a 'leave of absence' the day before the appointment. And when their secretary phones me to tell me about the leave of absence she tells me that I can phone the pharmacy I get my prescription from to fax them a prescription request. Which is what I wanted in the first place, a month ago!!

*end rant*


Does the thinking process of the dermatologist and the dermatologist secretary confuse you just as much as it confused me? Please tell me I'm not the only one.
