I agree with changing your doc if you have too. But a gripe of mine is i've had to change docs all because i got some new insurance plan at work and the doc i LIKE isnt on the new plan etc... Then its like oh here we go again gotta go try and find another doctor *Sigh*
it can be a drag is my point. then i end up thinking does this illness merit a doc visit.
Heck i went for chronic diariah once when i drank got sent home with immodium i was like i paid how much for this?
doc was right too!! immodium worked but geeeze ::Faceapalm::
another time i went cause I coudlnt hear out of my left ear got told to quit using qtips and use this ear cleaning stuff that i could get over the counter again it was liek REALLY It took an MD for this
.
Sure in both cases thank god it was not something worse but when i've faced the 2 situations again i ddidnt bother with a doctor again.
this is me and yeah if my condtions persisted i woulda gone back.
