Others who do not work in the medical field often hold doctors up as being gods but you and I know better. I also have been frustrated trying to get the care I think I deserve. I ASKED a physician before if he thought what I had might be so and so- he never investigated it yet another physician later on without my saying anything gave me the possible same diagnosis that I asked the first about. A relative tells me, well they don�t like it when you tell them- said not telling, just asking if possibility. I had 1 physician (never saw this 1 again) who when I told him what I was diagnosed with by another physician, looked upward as if to say not believing. Told him I could only go by what a physician tells me. I finally gave up mostly on a search for assistance with my fibromyalgia and self-referred to pain clinic. Told them just give me something that will get me through the most horrific pain, don�t want to be buzzed all day long but just want to be able to work and make a living. I know your pain!
