I am MILLIMETERS (maybe micrometers) from just blowing off doctors, at least until I know something is wrong with me. Their inability to predict the future health of their patients, coupled with their downright ARROGANCE of being so sure that they are always right (particularly given that they’ve been wrong much more often than right) has got me to the end of my patience with them.
To put it another way, I DO NOT want to become yet another ‘revenue stream’ for Big Medicine...and I won’t be.
