    Hiya,

    I'm so sorry, 8 years is a very, very long time to be suffering with that (sounds awful!) pain. I really don't understand some doctors, my GP is very similar. I thought the whole point of becoming a doctor was to listen to patients concerns right?

    From my own experience, the really the only advice I have (and it might be terrible) is to just keep going back. Don't let them brush you off. You need that pain treated, and the problem investigated, as well. Keep going back to them!

    Take care of yourself.

    - E :)

    I'm so sorry to hear that. It really does sound exhausting. I can totally understand why you're fed up. You'd think that in order to train to be a doctor in the first place, someone should have a passion for actually caring for patients and fixing people. It seems that some don't. And they just want the ££££.

    Hey @Past User just to say that this thread is pretty old (over a year in fact!) so I'm gonna go ahead and close it. This is something a lot of users have had a problem with since sometimes old threads will pop up where they don't belong. It's nice to see you offering support though so thanks for that. :)
