Speaking of Doctors…
Before I was diagnosed Diabetes positive in March
of ‘98, a blood test was performed in the Summer of
‘97 by Disney to check for a widely used chemical at
the time which was being fazed out by the Government
because of it’s toxicity. The whole department where I
work was having blood drawn. The blood was sent to
Florida Hospital. All of the results were screened by
Disney Doctors. My glucose level was high-250. This was
earmarked by the lab to draw attention to the fact that it
was well above normal. The Disney Doctor dismissed
this saying that the half a can of soda I had had an
hour before my blood was drawn must have been the
cause. A few months after my diagnosis I had turned in
an application for FMLA (Family Medical Leave Act)
which clearly stated that I was a Type 1 Diabetic. A
week after I turned in the application to Disney one
of the nurses from First Aid called me and asked me
if my condition was for the rest of my life. What’s
up with the Medical Profession. Is this why they say
“practicing medicine”? They need alot more practice if you
ask me. True story.<br
