My opinion of healthcare in this country has plummeted! Jim had cataract surgery. At first they blamed the botched surgery on him for sniffing while they performed the operation. Then it became the shape of his eye. After surgery they didn't explain what was happening, and not being a patient person...well that is an entirely different story. So now the story is he is a complicated case. I don't need a degree to tell you that.
Days running here and there for I don't know how many different prescriptions. With a fun little episode of the pharmacy giving him the wrong prescription, then the insurance company won't authorize the right one because the wrong one was dispensed. Get where I'm going with this now? The right hand has no clue what the left is doing. Multiple trips back and forth testing his eye pressure, which always seems to be up. I feel as if I live at Moore Eye Institute, and they aren't the friendliest bunch of people. The receptionists are as icy as the office.
And now I sit in their freezing cold office for three hours waiting! Listening to game shows on the TV that I would love to blow up. The stimulating topics being discussed: How to eat to lose weight, should priests marry, and other mindlessness. Why are people interested in this drivel??
On the upside I have read a bit about the life of John Muir. Ironically I am sitting in an eye institute reading about Muir's eye injury.
