	Rob makes sense Vic, please listen to him. I am, of course I can call the Doctors Office on Monday morning and see if any lab results are in and can I go to a GI Doc, but I can't force them, they can tell Me to get lost, that they see nothing wrong. ____________ BSG Anthem My Facebook page

V8c get your butt to the Doc or don't look for any more support from me. I said I will, I just have to hear what they tell Me, their in control, not Me, sheesh.... Lighten up please, I can only go see the My doc, then their in charge, they can tell Me yes or no, I've actually been told once that if they don't see anything, that they won't do anything. Just cause I went to the lab and they got a sample doesn't mean anything, if nothing is found they have the right, to tell Me to go home.... Cause I have an HMO(Health Maintenance Organization) known as IEHP(Inland Empire Health Plan).... Bottom rung Doctors is what I get, Good ones won't see Medicaid patients cause of money, or should I say the lack of said.

	Vic, you started this thread with the statement that you thought you could be seriously ill, requiring treatment. As such we have all *responded accordingly*. But when you digress into technical details about your computers, stuff about star wars characters, or other side-tracks, it causes confusion as to how seriously you are actually taking it all. You seem to be approaching this on the basis that you expect them to tell you, there is nothing wrong, go away. I'm not au fait with the USA medical support plans i.e. Medicare or Medicaid, but it does appear that you have access in some way to have what treatments you need, for whatever maybe wrong. Uli, I, and many others only have your best interests and welfare at heart Vic, but it's up to you to stand your ground, repeat the symptoms, and insist upon being fully examined, a laissez-faire attitude is not the best way to proceed. Please keep us informed of the medical situation.

	Uli, Chris, I don't know a damned thing, so far, I've done whats been asked of Me by the powers that be. If this, if that.... The emergency room won't do tests beyond like they already have, they'll just tell Me to go talk to My Doctor(thats My experience), some Doctors like to say some are hypochondriacs if they find nothing wrong with someone who keeps coming back over and over again and HMOs like to limit the amount of tests and/or treatment to whatever is cheapest. ____________ BSG Anthem My Facebook page

	I just called the Doctors office, they won't have any results until Tuesday, if the results are abnormal they would want Me to come in to talk to the Doctor, a cancer screening would also have to be talked to then with said Doctor. Later. ____________ BSG Anthem My Facebook page
