I had the weirdest doctor appointment today.

With a breast specialist, gotta get the girls removed. This surgeon is 76 years old and I know dementia/Alzheimer's when I see it. She was arguing with me that there's no way I could be in pain. She offered me male hormones and told me I needed a psyc evaluation. It didn't come together until I left that she probably was assuming I'm trying to transition 😂

She was horrifying. She couldn't get anything I said right. Accused me of being suicidal because I have PTSD. Told me I wasn't of sound mind. Offered me different pills telling me surgery for having lumps, history of cancer and pain was unethical.

This is what it's coming to. Arguing with boomers with dementia about my health and quality of life.

Frickin retire already. Let go.

It was so trippy and in hindsight, kinda funny she really assumed I wanted to have my breasts removed to be a man. A man, pfff.

Um.. how is she still working there? She sounds like she's gets off to pictures of a flat earth and argues with people who still poke her on Facebook

@HijabaDabbaDoo She was out there lol I can see in her eyes she's not all there though. She probably used to be good, but it's really sad the people in her office are covering her mess ups instead of being honest. People tend to pretend these things aren't happening but she's a surgeon, she could feckin kill someone!
@ScreamingFox that's actually careless and negligence on their part

@HijabaDabbaDoo I'm kinda thinking about saying something. Not just to her office but to the medical group. When I looked her up after to find her age I saw she has lots of bad reviews. But from what I've seen working in caregiving, people don't know how to handle these cognitive issues so they pretend it isn't happening. Or they just assume someone is mean or crazy when there's more to it. We need some awareness about it in the US because it's hitting the boomers hard.
@ScreamingFox Yeah, it's kinda concerning there's nothing being done about it. Drawing attention to it could definitely help
