Unfortunate, but true, Kathryn.

It is very frustrating to have such negative experiences at the hands 
of those who are in the business of helping us, and then to learn of 
the blatent warfare tactics of a powerful few to keep the rest in line 
and promote one point of view, and one standard of care. It often seems 
as though there is no one who will listen and help, and would rather we 
go off and die quietly than continue to bother them with our non 
existent, psychosomatic complaints. My insurance company certain would 
have liked that- one less person to interfere with their money making 
capability.

Then you find a gem- one who even calls you at home to make sure you 
are not off dying in an emergency room without him knowing, another one 
who while shackled with restraints, makes sure I know who is 
successfully treating this if I would like to go, and makes off the 
record recommendations of supplements that he knows will help.

There is a real and serious problem with medical practice in this 
country, and it seems to start with HMO's, and "standards of care" that 
are necessary to deal with the litigous nature of the populace, who in 
general seem to believe everyone has a *right* to good health, and may 
think suing a dr means suing an insurance company. Stuff happens. To 
everybody, if you only live long enough to not die tragically young. 
Everyone is dying, if you want to look at it that way. We all just want 
to put it off for as long as possible, and enjoy our life as much as we 
can. Many good doctors help with that. I owe my life twice over to good 
drs that keep up, and know how to think through problems. Thank God for 
them. I also owe my recovery to my own efforts,and I prefer to fix 
myself when ever possible. Sometimes it has not been possible.
