I went yesterday for all my test results. After sitting in the waiting room for 3 HOURS he pretty much told me there wasn't really anything wrong with me and sent me back to my regular doctor. I was so mad. I told him that I've been in so much pain that I can't even bend over without having stabbing pain. He just didn't even care. Said he would send a letter to my doctor that he didn't find anything. He said that there wasn't any bacteria in the culture. I told him that's why my doctor sent me to him in the first place. He didn't say a word and had the nurse walk me back out the door. The nurse seemed just as confused as I was about what he did. Made me feel like a complete idiot. I went home and cried for hours. Was so upset it triggered a lot of "s" feelings. Feel like why do I even try to tell anyone I'm sick if no one is listening. Kind of felt like I did when I was young and told someone about my abuse. Just send me out the door they don't want to hear about it. So I don't know anymore. I wonder how my doctor is going to react? I know she's not going to be happy with what this other doctor did. I did talk to my mom yesterday. For once in my life she was actually helpful. She's going to talk with one of her friends who's a nurse to help me find another doctor in her town. Maybe going to a larger city will help me get a better doctor. My mom said there is really something wrong with me. She said she can look at me and tell that herself. Even the ppl I work with are mad about yesterday. They can tell I'm sick as well. Just stupid doctors that can't. My mom said that normal ppl don't sleep 14 hours straight and then need a n*p a couple of hours later. Just so mad. I cried so much yesterday and I haven't eaten since sunday night, just don't feel like it. Doctor blew me off

Well then maybe he's not doing he's job. If your back is hurting then get help. Don't listen to someone who doesn't care. ((((((((((((((monty_girl)))))))))))))))))) I believe you and support you, heck this is what a forum is for. But the thing is you don't need to be judge, next time that happens walk out of the doctors room. Any way, maybe could have a free back massage. It's really nice, you could get someone to do that for you, maybe your hubby could. Take care of yourself.
Sincerely, Miss_A.

I am so sorry the doctor treated you so badly. That was really awful of him to do. I hope you find a better doctor that is willing to get to the bottom of what is causing you pain.

Be good to yourself.

Monty,

I'm so sorry you were treated like that. Doctor blew me off

You and I talked about this very thing and I know how bad you feel, not only physically and emotionally, but about not being believed. I feel the same.

Don't listen to him. You know you. Others see it too. This happened to me with my blood disorder.

I was told all my symptoms were psycho-somatic. Come to find out, every symptom I had was because my platelets were at a million (norm is 440,000) and I was heading for stroke territory.

It was a dermatologist who finally realized something was wrong and sent me to a Hem/Onc.

Don't let one doctor make this "call."

I wish I could make it better. Doctor blew me off

That's terrible that your dr treated you in that way. He should know that everyone is nervous about their test results, and to just tell you that nothing abnormal was found, and to not want to pursue any other course of action intrying to find out what's wrong with you, is just incompetency. I hope very much that you will find some caring dr elsewhere who will finally work out what is wrong.

Monty,

I am very glad you are seeking a second opinion. There are doctors in this world that see everything with blinders on.

Dump this fool and move forward seeking the truth. Don't let it go. ok? I am really glad your mom is helping now.

Good luck. I wish I could do more too.

Thank you everyone for the hugs. He made me feel like this is all in my head. Right now I'm just waiting to hear from my mom to get the name of a doctor. I'm just tired of dealing with everything right now. Just want to feel better.
