this popped into my head today.....

this popped into my head today.....  I was in hospital for a med change, to monitor for seizures, hooked up to a portable EEG machine that would click on if my brain did anything “strange”. It was a three day stay for an otherwise healthy person so I walked the halls, worked out on a bike they had for EKG testing, walked some more, read four books, watched game shows. On the third day, my neurologist showed up to check the machinery. He found me pedaling on the bike, tut tutted me back to bed, ran me through the neuro testing and then did a breast exam. I was in the doctor patient bored place of responding with infinite patience to stupid commands when this started. It took me about 20 seconds to register what was happening before I reacted. I pulled back. Pushed the nurse button. I watched as he skittered away like some giant cockroach. When the nurse arrived, I told her what had happened. She asked if I was sure. What? I was a 36 year old woman. I was not in a psych ward. I was here for a meds change to stop seizures. I asked to speak to the Nurse Manager. The Nurse Manager is the person who is in charge of everything that happens on a shift. She arrived and she had been told what I had said. She sat on the bed, taking my hand. Her first words? “This will be a shit storm”. I asked how to file a formal complaint and remove him as my doctor of record, how to have another neurologist take over my care immediately. She started the process without further comment. She did her job. She was a consummate professional. He was a very very accomplished neurologist. He was the only one that had been able to diagnose me and the only one that had been able to help with controlling my seizures. I never spoke to him again, although I did refuse his request to write about my case for the<b> journal </font></b>of medicine because he wanted access to follow up files. Seriously? You cannot conceive the many without the one. |

I had a doctor's appointment yesterday. my doc is the nicest guy ever. we laugh and joke. he's truly a good human being. maybe that's why this popped into my head. you need to trust the person who is caring for you, how else can you give over your body and believe that they will treat it with reverence? You cannot conceive the many without the one.

That's amazing and yet not so amazing after all. We tend to think of our doctors as somehow detached and if not above us all then at least not so susceptible to infractions like this. And we see it elsewhere, from sports stars and celebrities and businessmen. There are many people who think nothing of using someone else and feel no remorse whatever.

Remembering these kids of things might mean that it no longer takes up real estate in your mind... sounds like your neurologist was a good doctor at what he did but then was just not good for staying professional.

I have read about this complaint before. . This is not normal, but also not new. It often happens to younger girls and women that might be too embarrassed to even mention it to anyone. That's why some Mothers insist on being in the room when their teenage daughters are being looked at. . Perhaps they've read about it too, or maybe had such an experience themselves when younger.
