My consultation went well once the air was cleared I think he remembered me when I told I was not going home to sit on my backside in fact I told him his words encouraged me to get were I am today, His first words were not everyone on the transplant list gets one I thought what a negative man then I looked

( well glared ) at him and replied at this stage you would think I already know this,Then his manner changed he was smiling and talkative then he told me what was happening in weeks to come and when i was leaving he said Mr Strachan thanks for proving me wrong I said and so am I.

At least he had the decency to apologise for his negative attitude. I think his negative response has spurned you on darling and i bet you enjoyed proving him wrong.xxxxx

Well done you! I think this is the way we all have to deal with most of these Dr's/Consultants. Feeling very proud of you (even though I don't know you personally) xxx

Hi Matt

Way to go!

What transplant are you having?

I sometimes think all RA consultants should have the disease for a few months to see what it will feel like. Although I wouldn't really wish t even on my worst enemy!
