How Do You Get To Your Appointments When You Have No Support?
I am having a hard time getting to my doctor appointments. I have EXTREME anxiety and get physically ill just thinking about going. I do not remember what they tell me and cannot drive to get there. I am better if I have someone to go with me but I don't have that luxury.
I take a taxi
Peggy I use Lyft, Uber and friends. I can imagine being uncomfortable in a van with folks that you don't know. Have you reached out to your insurance and share with them your concerns.
I have been so overwhelmed with appointments. I'm trying to get a lot done before the new year so I don't waste my benefits for teeth and eyes for this year. Last week I had an appointment everyday. It overwhelmed me so much and sent my anxiety through the roof. I ended up not making it to any of them. This week I have 2 and next week I have 2..so far. I cannot imagine having to pay an Uber for 5 doctor visits in one week...
Hi Peggy, I use Uber and I order them when I am ready with enough time to get to my appointment. They are generally very prompt and very friendly plus it is just them in the car when they come to get you.
Maybe the Area Agency on Aging or NAMI might provide an advocate?
