Does anyone else ever just want to quit visiting doctors?

The question that I have is finding something better than telling you it is all in your head and not looking further?

Good luck with your health issue. I hope that it is not a complication.

Joe I really feel for those who are treated this way by their doctors.  No one should have to be treated like a hypochondriac by anyone especially doctors.. Fortunately for me I haven't encountered that by doctors just my mom and siblings...

I think maybe there is a misunderstanding here. I think the issue was the whole process of going from doctor to doctor looking for a diagnosis or other help. Being treated like a hypochondriac, etc.

I am off that train - but I am followed by my PCP and PA and they help me enough at this point. I am in there every other month or so. I saw too many specialists last year who ultimately did not help and some made me worse.

I did my annual GYN appt last week, even though I hate it!!! Need a mammogram this year, too...

I want to be around, just not spending most of it in dr. offices getting nowhere!!

I wish everyone a wonderful New Year!
