I have a serious health question about doctors ethics and my condition.?
We all know when something just isn't right, when our mind and bodies aren't in sync. Docters need to listen more, and have a good bedside manor, and should really do more testing, instead of using process of elimination! I'm not talking about all docters, because their are some really fine docters out there, and you are real lucky to fall upon one. I have had numerous kidney stones, ever since I can remember! I too, was very, very weak, and throwing up bile because the pain was too intense. Every avenue I took, going to this docter, and that one, I could get no help!!. I knew something was terribly wrong with me. All I wanted to do was sleep, it became a great escape for me. All the docters I went to told me that I was depressed, that I needed to get a job, and even told me I was lazy, and put me on prozac, zoloft and numerous other antidepressents. Still, I knew there was something terribly wrong with me, I didn't feel good, ever! I closed my life off, didn't go to family dinners, didn't see my friends, made sure to have no social life..all i wanted to do was sleep! It wasn't until my left kidney was so impacted with kidney stone, and no docter would opperate because of my insurance, that one stepped in, and told me that he would take care of me for free because he didn't take the insurance that I had. I explained how I felt year after year, and the experiences I had with all the other quack docters. He told me he was going to run a test on me, but told me I probably didn't have what he was testing me for. He came back, and told me I had a life threatening disease, and I would have to get a bracelet. He told me that I have Addisons disease. I have no adrenalen, because my adrenal glands are destroyed, and I have to take steriods the rest of my life or I shall die!! I suffered with this disease for many years, because the docters were too busy with the people with the good insurance! All it took was a great docter whom listened, and who really cared about humanity, and one simple test!! Don't give up! I do think you should find a few more docters, and explain how you feel. You know that something just isn't right. I hope you find a docter just like the one, whom was loving enough to help me out. I will forever be grateful for him!! Good, good luck to you. I hope you will be feeling better, and that you find a great docter! They really are out there! It just takes time, and patience,and alot of shuffling around to find the right one!!(good insurance would help too!!)
