Default Have you ever been just plain fed-up with Doctors?

Hello everyone,

I want to thank you for your support!!! It means so much to me to be able to have people listen. Not too mention being able to relate what I am going through.


I have to report that one of my recent appointments was a complete and total waste of my time and I just can do it anymore. I no longer have the energy or the ambition to keep this up. According to these doctors (Supposed to be the best? Ha, that's a good one) there is nothing wrong with me.

Well then if that is the case why the He** does my neck, lower back, right hip, right leg & both feet writhe with pain? This doctor looked at my medical records and excepted them as gospel would not take into account my new symptoms or order any new testing. They told me this is not peripheral neuropathy because it does not present the way I am describing it and they said they would not have been able to touch my feet due to pain. UMM? GUYS, HELLO? YOU COULDN'T TOUCH MY FEET DUE TO THE PAIN !!!! REMEMBER ?

I am so upset no one is of any help including my girlfriend. she says she is but everytime I try and talk to her she does not want to say anything. The only person who is helping is my pain doctor and for that I am ever thankful but how long will he continue to Rx pain meds when all the other doctors tell me that there is nothing wrong?

I am to have a bone scan done which was ordered by a Rheumatologist but why bother it will only help prove that there is nothing wrong. How can I hurt this bad, Why can't I feel my feet, How can they not find what is causing this? Personally I am really starting to think that this might be diabetes related. Everytime I eat something high in carbs or sugar, I become hot sweaty, nauseous, my vision goes phunky, and my pain and numbness goes through the roof.

the only problem with all that is my latest blood tests have been normal after I stupidly eat such foods. Of course no one wants to hear what I have to say, because I am a foolish person who is making all this up. SIGH, WHAT ON EARTH CAN I DO THAT I HAVEN'T ALREADY DONE?

Again I say thank you for listening to my rant. I've had the day from He** and the 8 hour drive on top of it not to mention the raging sinus infection has not helped.
