I know what you mean. When I started having spinal problems, the doctors told me it was all in my head. Umm, I don't think so, doc. Nothing makes me madder than an arrogant doctor talking down to me.

I did manage to prove them wrong when I finally got them to run some tests. But it took forever.

We shouldn't be treated like that. Why not get another opinion from another doctor??? You don't have to believe what these doctors say. YOU know how your body feels - you're in it day in and day out. lol If you think there is something wrong, then there probably is! Get another opinion dearheart - and set your mind at ease. God bless and let us know how you come out. Hugs, Lee
