God yes.

Asking the doc for a specific test because I KNOW I have all the symptoms of a particular condition, only to be laughed at, assured that I couldn't possibly have that condition...then after 50 negative tests for OTHER conditions, he finally gives me the test I asked for and it's positive. 🤬

@NativeOregonian yeah I have dealt with that too, from the judge at my disability hearing. He failed to notice that my medical records show my weight increased AFTER being diagnosed. 🙄

@DearAmbellina2113 My weight didn't even come up at my disability hearing last month other than I get severely short of breath and extreme fatigue during exercise.

@DearAmbellina2113 It actually took me over two years to finally get a prescription for bed time oxygen use, both my lung specialist and a sleep specialist kept trying to push sleep apnea and the use of a bipap machine, which made me feel like I was suffocating. Finally my coumadin clinic doctor listened to me and understood that maybe all I needed was night time oxygen to help me feel better in the morning.

That's why I avoid them at all costs. But you know this already.

@Peaceful It’s sad though 😩

@MellyMel22 I'm just glad people are finally waking up to this bs.
Doctors unfortunately weren't taught properly. And the industry is profit driven, so...

@Peaceful Yep.. Makes me sick 😒
Haha. Indeed. I needed that laugh. Thanks" 😹😹😹

When it happens, the worst thing you can do is let on.

My former psychiatrist... took a little longer than I'd like to admit but she was very unqualified.

@raysam363 That stinks 😩

@NativeOregonian My former doctor went down the list of meds, no breaks in between. At worst I was on six medications at once. It really did some damage.

@raysam363 :( That is why I prefer Cannabis, when under proper recommmendation, becausd all its aide effects are beneficial, like sleep and wellness, the munchies and the giggles :)

Replacing Doctor's office with a mental asylum would convert it into a joke.

I had a question Mel
MellyMel22 · F
@Peterpaul17 Nope, but someone recently said our profile pics looked similar and I turned up my screen and saw it 😅
Peterpaul17 · 36-40, M
@MellyMel22 it was like I was thinking you have 2 profiles. 😂

Sorry
MellyMel22 · F
@Peterpaul17 Nope, we’re two different people 😄
