That seems unusual -- it's sort of the opposite in my case. Long ago, I didn't have many issues and got the impression they wanted patients suffering from something expensive to treat. Now I'm more in that latter category, so my doctor runs all sorts of tests I never had before. Maybe I need them, but they seem to be profiting a good deal off me these days...
