my doctor is the last person that comes to see me. already with a decision in mind. it is hard to actually kniw her opinion because her visit is more like this is what we will do and not listening to the patient.

Generally good, but maybe there just isn't any treatment options available to me so I'm feeling frustrated. My eyes were dilated and I wasn't offered any dark sunglasses. Luckily, I found a pair in my car. I feel this is an oversight on the part of staff.
