You have very well stated my assessment all the way down to my having had enjoyed excellent health all my life as well - until now. I have a 3 page list of Neurological, ENT, Spine Surgeons, etc., yet I am treated like a "hot potato" passed from doctor to doctor. I have letters from Doctors firing me as a patient because I ask too many questions. One doctor I saw at a teaching hospital yelled at the Resident who actually spent time with me reading my file, that "You need to move on, there is a full room of patients outside!" My faith and trust is in Jesus.

@speechless623 I wish I had your faith. All I have is science and it is failing me at the moment! Pam

I too have been fired by many doctors, not for asking questions as much as for stumping them, which they don't like to admit. My Christian faith has provided two doctors for me who actually asked me to be their patient! One asked me when I visited a clinic he supervised. He has been my PCP for 11 years. The other called me on the phone and asked if I would like to see him for pain management. I have been seeing him for 7 years. I believe God, in His incredible way, was responsible. I have yet to meet another who was asked by a reputable doctor to be their patient., much less by two. Both of these men are the same age as my older son and I call them both by their first names.My PCP cares about my physical, emotional, and spiritual being. He sees me for 30 - 40 minutes a visit. He is a D.O. and also provides OMT which is great for me as I have numerous allergies to meds and much prefer his treating my muscle and nerve problems with hands on. Pain Management doctor is exceedingly talented and knowledgeable about so much and is so very current. on methods and treatments. He shows his care for me by avoiding the many things I am allergic to, by his fantastic sense of humor, by his not being intimidated by my many "weird" neurological conditions, and simply caring for me as a person. I feel truly blessed.
My prayer for you is that the right doctor(s) for you will be provided soon.
