Was I being unreasonable? How much should I be trusting the healer?

Also, who has time to type anything during a fight? I mean, sure, maybe some DPS, but as a tank, I've got a lot of stuff going on, and those cooldowns aren't as slow as they feel against a boss.
Spinning the boss makes it harder for melee DPS to use their positionals (some attacks do more damage if they hit the boss from the rear and flank). Spinning the boss has nothing to do with healers, although you do want to move out of AoEs while keeping the boss roughly in the same spot as much as possible.
