u r not overreacting. i suspect u have been "black listed". i wish u luck in ur seach.

i also have lower extremity problems. occasionally my right leg "gives out". it happens so seldom that the docs are not concerned. however, this symptom has caused me greater injury when it happened and i fell yet again. all they have done so far is nerve conduction studies, came out negative. this symptom started when i fell and had a rotated pelvis. it continues to rotate back into the wrong position. i have some exercises that push it back the way it is supposed to go. it can also push it too far in the other direction, so my therapy is basically a wild assed guess of when and how much i need it.

most all tests i have been given have come out negative, and i believe that i am perceived as a hypochondriac too. after a while i just gave up on doctors. i don't even try to find one unless i am almost dead from something. i suspect this is what has made me more healthy.
