I went to Sloan-Kettering to see Dr Castro for a follow up. I'm in the middle of severe serum sickness. All he wanted was for me to sign up for a bone marrow transplant. The cost to me would be $20,000.00. I just had Rabbit ATG and he didn't even care to see if the treatment worked yet. When I didn't sign the papers and said I have to think about it, I don't have $20,000.00, he got really mad at me. This is not how a doctor should treat a patient. He should have empathy and caring about what the patient is going through at the moment.
Now I have nausea and shaking, I can hardly stand alone. I have to get a platelet transfusion, they are down to 6.
Thanks for the support, Lynn
