Debzilla
On the way home from Reno Bruce was pretty sore I asked him when he goes in to get his blood draw. He says they never called him back so I decided to call his Dr. Monday. Naturally both he and his nurse were out Monday so I left a message for one of them to call me so I could get to the bottom of the blood test deal. Tuesday his Dr nurse Debbie called me back and lashed into to me when i told her Bruce had started taking his shots and I wanted to know when they would test his blood. She told me Bruce was not on treatment because he had not met with her and the Dr would drop him from treatment and he needed to sign some paper. Of course she is the person who ordered the medications to be sent to us and told Bruce she could not meet with him for 3 weeks when he called to tell her he got the drugs and would start them that friday but whatever. Calling a person who I watch suffer thru these side effects irresponsible was my breaking point. I told her I was simply calling because since Bruce had been on this treatment before I was positive he needed blood tests. She as an absolute bitch so I waited for her to finish ranting and told her I would not be threatened or imtimidated by her and she had a very rude and demeaning attitude so please just have the Dr call me I didn’t have time to argue with her. Well I imagine that does not happen to her often because she totally changed her tune. I told her Bruce would call her to schedule his appointment to sign her damn paper. Of course she was nice as pie when he called but I have now renamed her “Debzilla”. I guess you just dont expect this kind of treatment from someone in the medical profession. From now on she will be refered to as Debzilla.
