[QUOTE="Marcie Mac, post: 115578, member: 47"] Am sorry Heather - I deal with the "doctor has not got a clue" syndrome with my SO. I just wanna curl up in a ball every time we have to see a new one for something that has popped up because I know I am going to hear "hmmmmmmmm" and they will do the head scratching thing again. We have been told to call the Mayo Clinic as well (the one in Arizona)and see what we can do to get him in. Its hard when you have medi cal in Ca. to get doctor appts in AZ. And why is it necessary to have to DRIVE or FLY to another state to get to the top notch experts who seem to, without fail, have the answers. I have always thought that doctor diploma's should come with grading certificates like they do in restaurants. You see the license up there on the wall, and have no clue if they graduated at the top of their class, or barely eaked thru with a D- We were sent to a research specialist at UCLA who ended up giving SO some new drug. I looked at it when we got home, and it clearly had some strong warnings on do not take this "if" and he had more than his share of listed "if"s. Even his regular doctor when I had run up to his office to show him because I would surely not let him even start this regime said what is wrong with this guy, SO can't do this kind of medications without being in a hospital setting - it may kill him..sigh..and this doctor was the one that made the referral in the first place. Doctors don't seem to want you to work as a part of their team and do any research on your own - they always seem to get their knickers in a twist when you ask them to write that down because you want to research it on the internet. Where is House when you need him.. Marcie [/QUOTE]
