I Don't Believe Doctors Have All the Answers

I'm getting my results for my breast and now another doctor wants to schedule another appointment. When will this end?! I never had to go in that much as a kid...well maybe. I'm so sick of these doctors appointments and tests! Ugh! Do adults go to doctors more than kids? I'm not going to another doctor. I'm young... I'm not supposed to be going to the the doctor so much. I'm 22! Not 70 no offense.
Why do I need to go back to the doctors?

As much as I do believe most American doctors are honest, there is a certain mindset many have--treat the symptoms, not the cause--so they do tests (makes money for someone), prescribe pills (makes money for someone) and have you come back many times (makes money for someone). I discovered that exercise, yoga, meditation, diet (I am now vegan) and tantra have all eliminated many of my health concerns--pain, pills, blood pressure, etc...
