So I guess I fall into the a familiar camp of being unhappy with Dr. Zeegers. Did something happen to him... is he okay or is this normal? It is now 7 weeks today from when he said he would have my diagnosis done.
I will be brief, because dwelling too much on negative things impacts your overall well being which can effect your health, and the way your body responds to pain. However, I did decide to use some humor below using "Smiles." I can assure you though that I do not get angry like where I placed the "Smiles." At my worst I may have a look of disgust, but I rarely say anything, and if I do it is just to express dissatisfaction. But even that is done so with care. I do not think holding onto anger is a good nor godly character quality to have. It is better to let things be, and simply move on. Besides, life is too short to be concerned about everyone else's behavior... enjoy what time you have been given because you never know when you are going to die. Enjoy the "Smiles" though anyway.
I may have missed a few things, but I will do my best. So, here is the recap of our communication, and unless otherwise stated, all communication was done via email.
