@ksdm I might be a Dr’s worst patient possible (or a control freak). I don’t accept any medication, test or diagnosis without a satisfactory explanation of why. After all YOU are the patient and it is YOUR body and health that you are trying to care of. Ask questions until you understand and can agree to the treatment plan.

You are totally correct! But I just thought I had appendicitis!

I had an endocrinologist who gave me one answer to my questions, “trust me”. I learned more without asking at my initial appointment with my new endocrinologist. Having some answers gives me so much more peace of mind. All doctors are not created to communicate well. One surgeon I had was outstanding except for communication. He has a great PA who gives all the answers.
