Conversations about Opiate-verskrikte physicians, Discovery and doctors of colour

Dr January, (Doctor that Discovery fucked over and refused to pay for my appointments and scripts and made me go to their "white" doctor they chose for me- came to my rescue last night. The class action against racism (they only did that to 500 doctors of colour) is ongoing. My "white" doctor who I have been seeing for 18 months did not even know that I did not suffer from High Blood Pressure after treating me for bronchitis - then my BP went through the roof. He blamed the opiates for the High Blood Pressure and on a home visit he found that my chest was better but that I did have a very High Blood Pressure. Every single time I see him he tells me that I should not be on pain killers and that he would be happy to arrange a detox at a mental facility for me. He just does not understand the quality of my life. He asked me if I was taking my blood pressure pills and I told him that I had never been on BP meds because the BP is normally low. After 18 months he did not even know that!!!! I had spoken to and seen him every single day for a week and at no time did he bother to prescribe adequate medication. The medication for BP he prescribed caused diarrhea and did nothing for my BP. One visit from Dr January on Saturday night who prescribed two medications and pethidine, today my BP today is normal. These opiate-verskrikte doctors who are afraid of one becoming addicted get on my -used to be tits. Who the fuck cares about addiction when the quality of one's life is so bad.  But doctors are happy to give me as much morphine as I like - I can't take morphine because it makes me hallucinate.   I am going to tell this new specialist who knows nothing about my condition exactly how I have managed to stay alive and if she is an opiate verskrikte physician, I will find someone who understands me - even if I have to leave Discovery, pay Dr January myself and get my medications from a state hospital. As it is, my premiums to Discovery are R5 500.00 per month and R3000.00 on medications they won't pay for.   That is one moer of a lot of money to pay for a non-service where Discovery will only pay for medications that already exist in state hospitals.   Definitely profit before people.

  • Ursula Candasamy Yes lady Di... I have the same fckn problem... I never have high BP... But once I drank 1 tramadol capsule ... and it was too strong for me as I wanted to climb the walls.... My tongue was so thick, I could not talk... I tried to sleep but got heart parpatations.... So hubby took me to the doctor... He reckoned that there was nothing they could do and that my BP was high... I told him my BP has never ever been high, so why does he think it is high now.... He said well its high now, maybe cause of stress... Fck... I never stress.... He wanted to give me medication to bring BP down... I said no thank you.... R300 Later and he really could do 4kol for me... Next day I detoxed my body with green tea and cucumber water and I got better... These days when I go to hospital for my chemo, they keep on telling me, WOW, your blood is beautiful.... You know what.... I have so many different opinions to some of these doctors and I have just decided to follow my own intuition and feeling so much better.... I won't even tell them what the fuck I am doing to make me feel so damn healthy... They can go and screw themselves lol.... I laugh when they tell me... WOW Mrs Candasamy, you look great.... The medication must be working... If only they knew their medication went down my fckn toilet ðŸ˜‚😂😂😂
