Oh, y...Oh, sweety!! scream "SECOND OPINION" STAT!! <BR/>Oh, yeah, from a retired RN you gotta scream. Not be the nice guy stuff. Open the exam room door and tell the nurse in the hall I need a second opinion. Loud enough for others to hear. Walk to the front desk and tell them you need a second opinion, loud enough for the waiting room to hear. <BR/>the squeaky wheel gets the grease and the noisy patient gets the action.
