There are some real jerks out there, that's for certain. I had a GP who kept looking at my meds list every visit, and shaking his head, saying I was on too much, why did I need TWO antidepressants, etc. I told him to call my shrink. And I wasn't on near the stuff I'm on now! Last fall, I had a nurse practitioner refuse to prescribe me an antibiotic when it was clearly indicated, and I had used it multiple times before. She said she was intimidated by my list of meds.
Yeah, that really built confidence in her skills.

You are not alone, my friend. Hugs and good wishes, Buggs
