Tyson, All any of us can go by is what you have posted. No, there is no way I can possibly know your situation. But from what you have said, you aren't exactly getting the care you need. The symptoms you have described in the past would concern my internist, I can tell you that.

There's no need to cool off unless YOU need to. You have not done anything wrong. Conflict is not a bad thing; in fact, it happens every single day because we are all different. Some people don't like it and some people thrive on it. I'd rather avoid it and try to be happy and come to an understanding when conflict arises.

Frankly, I'm not doing okay. Not even close. This year has beaten me up in ways I can't even talk about. So, yeah, when you said what you did it really hurt. I've been there even when I haven't felt good cause I thought I might do some good. Now I'm feeling like it doesn't matter. Besides, there are a lot of other people here with great ideas and support.

You do what is good for you. I stand by what I say - your doctors are not holding up their end of the doctor-patient relationship, no matter what your age is.
