Yeah a lot of times, when you talk about to about two or three different doctors, they are going to have different opinions. Mostly when you really think about it, there are just going to be some times where their experiences are going to differ vary. About what they rather assume are going to work to say the very least, about what is going to work.
Granted when getting various opinions, that can be confusing to the average person. Not all of them might not be wrong but none of us can rather be sure about what is rather right to say the very least. There are just going to be many times where we are going to have all kinds of confusion to say the very least. Differing opinions can actually allow us to reach a good solution but not all of the times and advice from doctor's is one of those things that have to be for certain.

I fully agree with you.That is why I prefer to keep a close watch on my health so that I am not required to go to a doctor. At home we had a common physician whose medicine suited everyone of us so there we were in safe hands. But when you are at a new place it becomes even more difficult.

Normally, I don't go to doctor if it unavoidable. I think for the last 5-6 years, once only I visited the doctor, that is when I was fell down from a tree after electrification. I opted for a nearby doctor (whom I know) and when I got admitted, the doctor was not there and they found major stitches and all and was talking about how much it will cost also.
I asked my friend to call another doctor who is a friend of mine and he resolved the problelm with 75% less cost than the earlier doctor said.
However, you are right. If you visit 5 doctor for same illness and 5 of them will give different medicines and different opinions. No wonder, ...

hello there!
yes! i have experienced that, it's truly confusing! when we think of doctors, we always think that they are competent but having second opinions are good. but two totally opposing opinions from doctors can be really confusing. I'd rather think that one is competent and one is not. of course you can't believe in two opposing opinions.
have a nice day!
