Just moved to a new area so DP and I registered at the local doctor.
We had our health check appointments one after another and they were carried out not by a doctor or nurse but by a Health Care Provider.
Anyway… As part of the medical history spiel I told her that I'd recently suffered a MC. She suggested, quite a few times despite my protests, that I booked in to talk to someone about it. I said no because I have a strong support group of friends and relatives and to be honest, I just want to move on. I hadn't gone there to specifically talk about the MC and told her I was obviously sad, but dealing with it. She kept going on about it and told me a lot of personal stories about her friends' experiences with mcs.
I found out afterwards that when my DP went in after me she made the connection that we were a couple and told him that she thought I should speak to someone about the mc. She also told him other (really insignificant) details about things I'd discussed with her/about my medical history. Things like what my (normal) blood pressure reading was.
Am I wrong in thinking this was actually quite out of order? She only had his word that we were a couple - he could have been my lunatic housemate or something! We're not married so don't share a surname.
Also… I really don't think she should have told him anything about my medical details/history. Or asked him to pressure me in to seeking counselling. Or actually told us personal stories about her friends' experiences.
I'm not going to put in a complaint or anything, but I was wondering if I am just overreacting to be slightly put out. DP says it's all fine as he IS my partner and he ISN'T an abusive loon or anything and I shouldn't be (even slightly) annoyed.
