I feel for you, I feel cheated too, with some of my issues where I too, have been mis-DXed or under DXed, Grrrrrrr!
I've had about 10yrs wasted of my life and/or health due to a very similar situation, and I am angry but realize I cannot go back in time (when I start that I get so down and desperate) and only go on in the present time, but I have spoke to my pdoc and doc about how I feel cheated,and other words,etc. by the former docs I had when I lived in PA, mainly. Here I am going on 50 end of this month, and 10yrs have passed me by and I so wish I had those yrs spent feeling better, mentally and physically, valuable time wasted. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!
All we can do for now on is voice our opinions, and feelings on what we are feeling, and we need to stress to the pdoc and/or docs that we know what and how we feel.
We need to let them know what meds have worked for us, and what hasn't, and what we do not care or do care to try next.
I recently told a new endocrinologist that if she isn't willing to work with me, take the time, then we should not go any further, I do not want to waste my precious time left on this earth any longer, and I do not wish to be treated like a menopausal (doc's new excuses) hypochondriac, I feel unwell and want to feel well again, simple thing to ask for, especially when all I have needed was proper thyroid meds. Grrrrrrrrrrr!
Oh yeah, went down that route of AD's variety too, handed to me by my former GP's, calling me depressed, 6yrs pass, no improvment, then DXed by a pdoc and psychologist as mild bipolar.
Ah, it is so depressing in itself, when stuff like this happens, leaving us cheated.
I hear you, and feel for you.
Please take care,
DE
