Extremely angry, frustrated and can't sleep tonight. I don't know why I thought going to a mainstream doctor would have any benefit. Nothing has changed in 6 years. They are all still idiots!!!
Do they no longer teach differential diagnosis??? Is everything considered a psycho-somatic manifestation of an all mighty and powerful mind???
How dare they blame my symptoms on "facial pain"/insanity....seriously it IS like I am starting the battle all over again and after 6+ years, I have no fight left. And their only reason for this diagnosis is because I broke out in hives talking to them and then eventually tears when I figured out that I am once again wasting my money and talking to myself. I might as well go to a doctor, hand them $100 bucks and say BLAH BLAH BLAH, because that is all they hear!
Well hear this you over educated, but yet uneducated morons!!! I have broken out in hives since at least middle school anytime I get nervous, long before this problem! Perhaps YOU ALL should listen to what I have to say and my hives and tears would go away! Did you ever think of that????
I'm going to start wearing turtle necks to appointments, then they won't be able to see the hives that they cause, so then I won't be crazy right??
How about this, DOCTORS.. How about actually doing a CT scan? Not just telling me that you are going to order one, then fart around emailing your buddies and never getting it done. HOW ABOUT THAT, before you make ridiculous unfounded diagnosis? HOW ABOUT DOING THE JOB I AS THE CONSUMER IS PAYING YOU TO DO??? Instead of placing unfounded judgement on me..
Do any of you DOCTORS ever think about how when you get through making your irrational mistaken diagnosis and then send your patients to physical therapy without doing the proper medical testing first, that someone has to try to, in a politically correct way, clean up your messes? Yep that would be me, you jerks!!! I get to hear all day long about how lousy doctors are, except from the few that you have charmed. Then I have to sit and listen to the irrational gushing over how great you are when I know that your diagnosis isn't even close to being correct.
Just today I told someone that they DON'T have fibromyalgia, that it is something doctors made up to avoid actually figuring out what the problem is. It has become a garbage can term for EVERYONE that has pain. This person has legitimate rheumatoid arthritis and has had significant trauma that has left her with joint restrictions and muscle imbalances. LEGITIMATE problems, not some psychosomatic mumble jumble disease invented by doctors that want to take and easy way out and not really listen to the patient's history. And has she had any MRIs or x-rays in recent years to get that diagnosis. NO.
So not only am I trying to fight for myself right now, but I am fighting for at minimum 30 other people at the same time. My patience isn't running out with the stupidity. IT'S done!
What a waste! Doctors ARE what is wrong with healthcare in America today. They haven't a f'ing clue! Like our mothers used to say "we have 2 ears and one mouth"!!
Every 2 years I have to complete a medical errors course to meet my PT license requirements, among other things. I don't remember exactly when the change occurred, but medical errors were the 6th leading cause of death in the US, but NOW they are the third. So perhaps you think I am just ranting to rant, the stats do the speaking. In order for MEDICAL ERRORS to become the 3rd leading cause of death in the country, something must have happened to the quality of care! 6th isn't good, but 3rd is a whole lot worse.
So tonight, since I am once again diagnosed as being crazy, I can say out loud..I was talking to God. I vented my anger and frustration, I begged him to end it. I'm fine with him ending it ALL. I just want to be done (interpret that however you like, but I don't want CPR or resuscitation of any sorts..I'm done) and the message I heard back was ..."they are the idiots not you, keep fighting.."... somehow that made me feel better, although it is 1 am and I have to be up by 5 am and I am not asleep or in bed yet..ugh.
Thank you for reading and I hope that if you too are fighting the battle of the ignorant, that you are able to find answers soon..the correct answers, not made up nonsense and BS, but something based on actual medical tests.
It's sad when you actually hope for a brain tumor, just so that you can look at a doctor and say "see I told you so"....Of course I really hope not for one, so that I can go back to holistic medicine and avoid dealing with these horrible people..called by some.. "DOCTORS".
