Most docs dislike anything that challenges their routine...oh no the patient wants a voice in their treatment! I think appointments are now so short that the docs can't do more than a surface treatment of us. Lists of symptoms accommodate the doctor's weaknesses well....

Since then I don't bring a lot of written stuff to pdoc. If I do I make it short and sweet--like a short list of symptoms.

Anybody else have this experience?
