They never get better - if you aren't treated well the first time, you can expect that trend to continue, and this guy sounds like a jerk. He obviously doesn't have any interest in getting to the bottom of your symptoms. <BR/><BR/>I will be interested to know what you do eventually discover, as I and Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17438793762929989131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5494655959430218526.post-61365002256782761662009-03-06T16:48:00.000-06:002009-03-06T16:48:00.000-06:00Cookie - You set your expectations far too low, yo...Cookie - You set your expectations far too low, you know that? ;)Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07803503583347758969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5494655959430218526.post-43159395801234068602009-03-05T23:00:00.000-06:002009-03-05T23:00:00.000-06:00Yikes!

Universal care is no better, just ask my folks who lived in Canada for many years. <BR/><BR/>This system is so broken, I have idea how it can ever be fixed. Sorry you had such a crappy experience.

You might want to send a copy of your letter to the local medical review board. Especially after the advice he gave you to decrease your caloric intake and increase your exercise when the total opposite should have been advised. (Can anyone say M-A-L-P-R-A-C-T-I-C-E?) The privacy issue is another thing I might be alarmed about.

I would also follow up with a copy to the insurance company as well. <BR/>When I spent months tired, and unable to lose weight despite working out and eating well, as well as being in pain nearly constantly, I was blessed with a great doctor who listened to my concerns and diagnosed fibromyalgia on my first visit. <BR/>I hope you find a better doctor soon.Raevynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02653391980273329549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5494655959430218526.post-23097637606768795992009-03-04T19:58:00.000-06:002009-03-04T19:58:00.000-06:00You have every right to be upset!
