Deb,
Don't give up. One of the things that you need to do is go prepared,
ask all the questions you have, and you will find a doctor who will
listen. You will find that doc. Don't ever feel like you are "tired of
them" because you need them more then they need you right now. So many
times I hear people say "I feel like they are using me" when in reality
we NEED THEM. What other alternative do we have? To give up and do
nothing. What we need to do though is use them for everything they are
worth and that means trying to know more about this disease then they
do, going prepared for every appointment, and asking every question you
need answered. Use them for what they are intended for fully, make sure
you are satisfied with the information you have gotten before you
leave. Don't ever feel like you are leaving questioning what is
happening next--that means you are not controlling your disease or your
care. You need to feel in control. keep asking until you are satisfied
and make sure you have all the information you need so YOU can make the
decisions in your care--never let them make you feel like they are
telling you what to do because you feel uninformed.
