That's It! I'm Done With Doctors! / myLot

Okay, I'm beyond mad now. This morning's "Wellness Exam" by my primary care physician was a joke. She never asked about my liver. Didn't help me with a referral. She checked my chart to make sure I was up-to-date with vaccines. She listened to my heart and lungs and looked in my ears. The triage nurse had already taken my vitals. She said, "If you just ate better, you'd feel better." And that was it. Now on the one hand, she's right. I don't eat healthy. I know that. But on the other hand, that's not the only thing causing my issues. So the fluid in my ear is because I don't eat right? My thyroid problems are because I don't eat right? No. I'm done with doctors. I've had enough.

If the doctor is part of a group (“Freaky Friday Physician Associates” kind of thing), I’d be calling the administrator/manager and complaining.

Boy, I sure can understand how you feel. I hope you can figure out how to make yourself feel much better

There’s not much they can do for your liver. It’s supposed to heal itself. I have mild NAFLD and have been given no treatment. I am slightly overweight, but not obese, so losing weight probably won’t help me. My diet is pretty much based on the Mediterranean diet, plus chocolate. I can’t and won’t give up the chocolate
