firewatcher Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 Hi guys,I quit with the doctors for now...two weeks with no appointments. How do you react when a doctor says that he is basing his diagnosis on "gut reaction, instinct, or feeling?" Aren't we going to doctors for education, experience and knowledge based on data and test results? I've had good experiences with both the intuitive and the logical types, but I am constantly surprised how often these "feeling" based comments come up. I guess I should eat more Chinese food, my fortune cookie said "Drink to your health." Use the force, y'all!Jennifer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firewatcher Posted August 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 I guess I should clarify: given the question of Diabetes Insipidus, the fortune cookie was exceptionally appropriate, but should have read: "Drink for your health"I would NEVER drink adult beverages on Klonopin (not if I wanted to wake up again afterwards!)Actually all of my "psychic" doctors have been closer to the mark than the logical ones. It's frightening actually, all that time and money invested in medical school and all they needed was the thing that tells birds to fly South for the winter!Anyone else have good experiences, or bad experiences with doctors who work "from the gut?"Jennifer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

momofsara Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 Oh yes, definitely had experience with the "psychic docs". Some good , some bad. As in the earlier post, " you are so young and healthy looking" you must be wanting attention !!!!!! Oh yeah, the attention you get from passing out in a crowded store and being taken out on a stretcher. Just the kind of attention a pretty young girl would want, huh?? Hopefully, everyone will find a compassionate doc and recieve quality care. Gentle hugs to all------ Susan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
