I am 9 out of 10 times refered to someone else at a doctors apt. I have had a doctor tell my I am a nightmare patient with so much going on,so much testing,and still not a why behind it. I do agree with Dahlek that if a doctor is not wanting to take me on or is not as educated in what I am dealing with I would rather be passed on. I have wasted a lot of time with doctors who just take guesses and made worse in some cases. I am glad you are going to get your records. For every test I have and that even means bloodwork I get a copy. I have a binder full now that I bring to each apt. Along with all meds I have tried,treatments,etc and what has helped,not,side effects.
