Why are Doctors useless?

Question

I live with severe pain that is so bad, that I can barely walk. Every doctor I go to does nothing, no tests, no nothing, they profile me as a young male dont believe a word I have to say, and send me on my way, I am in debt to doctors for 3thousand dollars, visiting lots and lots of doctors trying to resolve this problem, none of them have done anything except take my money. If I was some young guy just after prescriptions would I keep spending money to go to the doctors? and I dont even ask for pain killers when Im there, I just want to be normal again... I was once told that doctors are always supposed to believe what the patient is telling them, and try to find the result for that...instead every doctor takes my money, shrugs and does nothing.This isnt the first time I've had bad times with doctors either, when I was little 2 different times I had broken bones, that they turned me away only for 2 weeks later to finally have them try to do an Xray and be like.."guess it was broken"

Answer 1

try a neurologist or a shrink...seriously. when there is no obvious source of the pain, it's gotta be neural or psychological. best of luck. and like mad roy says, when something is odd or unusual, it's hard to diagnose.

Answer 2

Try to get a doctor that will order a total body Nuclear Bone Scan. This kind of scan will show all fractures, no matter how minute. It may sound like a dangerous test but it isnt. What happens is that you'll be injected with a contrast, then go through the scan about an hour later.

Answer 3

In today's medical system odd or unusual conditions outside the usual run of things are sometimes hard to diagnose.
I recommend you read Let's Get Well by Adelle Davis, and look for a specialist who is not just going thru the motions when he sees you

Answer 4

just because they have PH.D's doesnt mean a thing. when i was in 6th grade i was severely sick for almost a year before a doctor could figure out what was wrong with me. i had blood work done every other day, i went to the doctor every single day of the week, i was passing out in their offices. before i got sick i weighed about 80 pounds, after i was done being sick i weighed about 60 pounds. i went to the hospital white as a sheet with a temperature of 94.6. my mom, my sister and i waited at the hospital for 3 hours for the doctor to say, "looks normal to me" and he sent me on my way. where is your pain at? you might have arthritis. go see a rheumatologist. hopefully they wont be stupid like your other doctors and actually run tests on you and try to find out whats wrong and wont just take your money. hope this helps! :D
