My visit to Dr Phan, my family doctor, was a little trying. After explaining to him about how I daily have problems concentrating, and many days falling to sleep still, I expressed my frustration in finding a course of action so that I can get back on course to at least begin looking for work again. His response "Oh, I do not see any reason why you cannot look for work."
So the fact that I cannot concentrate, and the fact that my comprehension skills are diminished, and the fact that I may need to sleep for a few hours in the day, these are not limiting factors for looking for work?
For instance, this morning I went out to breakfast with a few guys from South Portland First Baptist Church at Uncle Andy's in South Portland. I did fairly good there but by the end I could feel myself starting to slip. By the time I got home at 9 I had to lay down and sleep and I slept until 1 pm.
I think it is time to begin looking for a new MD, one that better understands the nature and impact that migraines can have in a person's life, or at least one that listens to me and comprehends what it means when I say that I need help in trying to manage these migraines.
In the meantime Dr Phan has told me that I should go back to see the neurologists for further treatment.
