I went to my nurologest yesterday, when I left I was completely dumbfounded and upset.  I had a migrain for 8 day and which I had actually went to the hospital for treatment because my meds didn't work, missed a shift and a half of work.  I listened to him tell me how it was my life that cause me to have migrains and how I invite them because I wasn't in control of my life, if I didn't likde my job, I should quit ( who can afford to quit a job now days).  He gave me two web sites to visit ophra.com and realsimple.com to "help me get my life together", then sugested theropy.  After all that before I left he asked me if I wanted to "just pop pills or get my life strait,it doesn't matter to him because if I pop pills he doesn't have to see me"

 

He was also going to give me a script for a blood pressure med. thankfully I asked what it was before I agreed tot ake it.  I am already on one, and my6 bp was already 116/76 at the time of the visit. I could have died if I hadn't of asked.

 

I don't know what to think or to do.  Am I wrong thinking that I should not have been talked to that way.  No other course of action was dissuced. I have been getting migrain since I was 21 years old, my mom  had them now my middle son gets them and he is 22 now.

 

Sorry for the rant, but can some one help?
