This is a great story and one that is all too familiar.

My teenage daughter was having severe abdominal distress last year and after visiting with 15+ doctors and having every imaginable test none of the doctors had a clue. Her primary care doctor even suggested this was all in her head!

My daughter could barely move due to the pain, was withdrawn from high school, and all the doctors could suggest was pain management. Their best idea was to dope her up to take away the pain but no ideas about the root cause.

One night she saw a story on the mystery diagnosis TV show that provided us with a diagnosis - she has endometriosis. She went to two gynecologists with this idea and both said there was no way she had that because she was too young and had too much pain.

We finally found a very capable doctor in Houston that confirmed the endometriosis as well as diagnosing insulin sensitivity.

Along the way we found almost all doctors have nothing but contempt for patients with a little bit of medical knowledge. Some actually got angry.

My daughter is functioning normally now with absolutely no help from 15 different doctors. If it were up to them she’d be drugged up right now and bedridden IMO.

The moral of the story is to do your own research and keep getting “second” opinions.

Infernal Triangle: AMA,FDA,Drug Companies: If YOU are healthy THEY go broke......there is NO percentage in having us healthy...profit is not a dirty word until people suffer needlessly.

Have not been to Doctors in 37 years..No colds, no flu, nothing except some seasonal allergies.

I do read their medical journals. They have known how to prevent or reverse diabetes (chromium & vanadium) since about 1959.

I had poor balance...supplemented diet with niacin (B vitamin ..medical profession did studies on this in the 1930’s) increased my fruit intake, threw away the cane I used within 2 weeks have not used one for years....Better shape now than I was 20 years ago.

I will call a Doctor for a broken bone OR IF I NEED A CORONER! lol
