Have you ever had a doctor not listen to you???

My husband and I've been in this situation before and it was kinda frustrating and scary at the same time. For myself, it took me more than 4 times until the doctor start believing to what I've said and take the proper test. And my husband decided to change his doctor to a better one after proved that his actual doctor been couple of times made mistake of his health. Doctor is just a human like us, so... No, don't give up !!!! If you feel something wrong with your body just keep trying until you find the closest answer. Go get second opinion or even browse on the internet for similar symptoms and about the FOLIC ACID itself and keep checking your health to the doctor until the doctor willing to do a proper health test and listen to your saying. Just don't give up !!! Good luck and I hope you'll get better soon and that you'll get the health treatment that you need !!!!

I would most definitely find yourself another doctor. You should not have to put up with that kind of behavior from someone we should trust to help make us better. Get a second opinion and report that first doctor to the medical board for being abusive. I've had an experience like this before. I was sterilized in 2001 after having my youngest son. I felt that my family was complete and sterilization seemed to be the best way to go. However, I started suffering from all sorts of painful cramps, mood swings, and god only knows what else around the time of my monthly cycle. After some intense research, I discovered that I was suffering from a common but little heard of condition known as PTLS or Post Tubal Ligation Syndrome. The cure is to have your sterilization reversed. I went to my doctor to ask about this - only to have him laugh in my face and tell me that this syndrome doesn't exist. He made me feel terrible and told me that I'm not qualified to know about such things. I said no, but I'm qualified to know when something is wrong with me, which is more than you are, and walked out. I have since found a private clinic that specializes in research into PTLS and they perform reversals every day. The only problem with that is that I have to save up to have the procedure performed AND for flights down there and back. When all is said and done, I'm looking at a $10,000 bill.

Doctors don't know everything. We expect them to automatically know what's wrong with us, but its like science. We don't know what the UFOs are or how big space is. Medical science is the same. We're still discovering new diseases and cures for older ones. I recommend going to a healthfood store and telling them about your ailments. Healthfood items are more expensive than over-the-counter pills but are more likely to solve your problems without side effects.
