Why is it that I hear over and over from
TMIC members, that they have not been told the whole truth about their
dx's and medications, because their doctors have such limited basic
medical understandings of certain illnesses?
We are either over or under medicated, given the wrong
medications and/or dx's, lied to- either directly or by omission- by
doctors who are supposed to be educated specialists, not to
mention the fact that we are spoken to as if we were children, incapable
of understanding the most basic information or in such "doctor-ese" that
we are incapable of understanding simply for the fact that we are not as
educated as the medical community.
And, if legal recourse is valid and available regarding our
chronic mistreatment by doctors and specialists, and we take advantage of
it, why are we are then at the mercy of the very people we are suing
and blacklisted so that we are never again able to receive
medical treatment in any state, county, or town in the
USA?
I feel as though I have been misdiagnosed or at the least,
uninformed, about the side effects of being a non-weight-bearing
individual. And in answer to my inquiries I receive shrugs of the
shoulders from my doctors. Why? Towards what end? What
is the deal???
Am I acting like a crazy person? Does anyone else out
there feel the same way as I do?
Thank you all who respond. What does a person have to
do to be told the truth? Can anyone out there help
me?
Sincerely,
Jude
