Does not the Hippocratic Oath say something like "first do no harm'.

Are not our Drs who are too woosy to diagnose us - "doing us harm". I am tired and I am angry. The next appt with the Neuro I am going to push the boundaries....

I was on steroids when I had my EMG last year. The first Neuro I saw took great care to prove me healthy. The second Neuro did not even spend 5 minutes in the room with me. I was never told that steroids could influence the result until a few months ago by another Specialist. I cannot come off the steroids - so what happens now ?

Do I go through a pantomine for this third Neuro ? And when I get a negative result ( as it will be ) what will this prove ?

I love your term 'frequent flyer', Rach ! That so suits us ... not that we want it that way.
