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!
