Thank you for your comments. Sometimes we really need to be our own doctors. If we are focused enough we can be our own PCP. I know of cases where the patient said just give me a happy pill and take care of the rest.

I don't want to be my own PCP, thanks, and I respect my doctors' knowledge. I do think that providing clear, measurable info to your doc gets you better care, though. And you have to keep expectations realistic. They can't fix everything, and effort is required on our part.
