I to have multiple health issues and I truly don't think Doctors fully understand a lot of things especially pain they can't see often times but it's still there! I am thinking about changing doctors, yes I will have to start all over again should I stick with the doctor I will or should I check out others?

@machone Yes you can find a new doctor but it’s a real hassle. Are you seeing an internal medicine doctor or a rheumatologist? How long have you been with your current doctor? You could ask to be referred to a pain clinic or pain specialist .
Is there a reason that you don’t just find a new doctor?

I go through this once a year or so. I don’t feel heard so I start looking at other doctors but then the stress of having to go through my full history feels overwhelming and I end up just sticking with the doctor I already go to. Good luck with whatever you decide!
