Procrastination

I have a very bad habit of procrastinating. I do it with EVERYTHING. I need to make an appointment with my local doctor to get blood work done. It's been 3 months since I've had my blood drawn. I have to get this done to check my liver enzymes. Some of the meds I'm on can cause problems with the liver. I know I need to get this done, but Ughhhh I don't want to! I'm so sick of going to doctors, getting blood taken (which I have a huge aversion to, but have gotten better), and lastly I'm sick of medicine!!!!

Okay enough whining. I know need to do it and stop being a baby. The thing is I haven't seen my local doctor since September. I kind of chose the Louisiana doctor over him. Just because I felt like the LA doctor had more experience. Now I know that my local doctor really knows what he's talking about. A lot of the things he told me I needed to do like taking herbs, staying on certain antibiotics, ect. were the right thing I believe. For some reason I dragged my feet and ignored a lot of his suggestions. It's not because I didn't think he was a very knowledgable doctor, but I just was so confused at the time. I guess now all I can do is trust in him. I'm kind of nervous about going back to him. I don't know why... I just feel like I was wrong to of stopped going to him previously... I feel like a retard. I don't know how to explain it. I just feel like I've made a lot of mistakes. I guess all I can do is make better decisions from here on out...

I don't know if you original doctor knows you went to the Louisiana dr but if not just be honest and tell him the same thing you told us...I'm sure he'll understand(((Hugs)))

Thanks for that Yvette.:-) I'm sure you are right... I'm probably making it out to be a bigger deal than it is.

Hi Lauren- I found your blog by linking to a friend of a friend of a friends blog.... (Don't you love that about the internet?)

Anyway, I have a history with neurological lyme disease. Almost three years of treatment thus far. I'm currently on my second round of IV Rocephin.

I probably have an entire blog worth of Lyme posts... if they can be any source of encouragement please feel free to stop by and search "lyme" on my tool bar.

Hang in there.
