Doctors need a taste of their own medicine

I am tired, frustrated, angry and also feeling very guilty.
I don’t know how my precious girl has put up with this crap for so long.

We went yet to another ‘specialist’ today who needs a bat round the head for starters.

If a doctor can’t figre out what to do why can’t he just say I don’t know. Why does he have to come up some lame thing that is somehow your fault?

He only listened to us until he found the word to latch onto that he wanted to hear and then he actually said, ” Aha!” Then he did not hear another thing and dismissed everything else we said. Now he had something and he created in his own mind what her symptoms were and came up with a flim flam cure that would only take a drive into his city every 6 weeks for the next 10 years! And at our expense! You see his methods are not paid for by the provincial plan because they are unfounded methods that have only worked for a while in a small group of people who do not have what she has to begin with!

I got us out of there as quickly as I could as I knew if we stayed much longer I would have smacked him one.
I am so angry. I wish I had not driven her there today.

The only redeeming thing was that we brought home Swiss Chalet chicken for supper. It was good, even after a 2 hour drive. And we bought a back scratcher for hubby.
