ICK!

What a terrible thing to have to go through!

Why is it that so many physicians seem to think that condescension and brushing-off of problems will just make them go away? Thank goodness you have the smarts and the experience to get the facts and soldier on with this alleged "care giver." My grandmother had repeated ear and headaches brushed off by her doc who just told her it was one of the consequences of age. Both her eardrums ruptured in his waiting room.

People know their bodies much better than a lot of docs give them credit for, in my opinion.
