Sophie74656 1,572 Posted November 19, 2015 Omg i had so many tests, I went to so many doctors. While it was unfortunate that I had lost my job I can't imagine having to schedule all those appointments around my working hours. I just kept reminding mysel that every test and every doctor visit was one step closer to the surgery I went to a psychiatrist, nutritionist, cardiologist, pulmonologist, ekg, chest xray, so many blood tests, hematologist, reumatologist....and probably a couple more I don't remember off the top of my head yeah isn't this the "easy" way out?
