I am always being refered to someone else to be refered to someone else. These docs go through med school to learn everything and I get frustrated cause none will make connections with symptoms if it is not in their area. I don't know if anyone here watches Medical mysteries I rarely do but on occasion. Well there was a lady for ex who had a vitamin issue that went not dx for 10 years and she was in so much pain and had hard time walking and finally a doc looked outside the box and found the answer and with the proper treatment is doing so much better. It is finding that one who will look with different eyes. I often wonder when I bring my records if I should ask them to first tell me what they think and then review the others notes instead of just going with the flow. Sorry this is long. Hang in there all.
Dear Daniella,

When I go to MD's, I usually take 3 sheets of paper with me like for instance.

1. Write a bit on your history.
2. Write every SX, even small ones
3. Make a list of questions for the MD, if need be stand by the door.

On number 1 and 2 date them and address them to each Doctor, give them the copy. Their biggest fear is a law suit.

They dot their i's and t's and so did I.

Hang in their, Love Roz
