My Wife Has Lupus » neuropathy http://lupusfamily.com Support for individuals whose family or friends have lupus Wed, 01 Sep 2010 22:15:46 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 MDs and ego http://lupusfamily.com/2008/02/mds-and-ego/ http://lupusfamily.com/2008/02/mds-and-ego/#comments Wed, 27 Feb 2008 05:26:43 +0000 Jeff http://lupusfamily.com/?p=38 As I mentioned previously, my wife is currently seeing too many doctors, and it’s really starting to bug me how each one thinks he or she has the answer. Not only do they have the correct answer, but all those other doctors are idiots for not having come up with the same answer as they did. I’m serious. They diagnose something that is within their specialty, and then call the other specialists stupid for thinking otherwise.

My wife recently had a neurologist suggest that go buy some colon cleanser product! What century is this? I really could care less if people choose to spend their hard earned cash on alternative treatments, but it doesn’t take a brain surgeon to figure out that herbal colon cleansers are quackery. If you’ve never visited Quackwatch.org, it’s worth a visit. Your wallet will thank you.

If I sound a little testy, it’s because I am. It’s been a very difficult few days. Neuropathy has been added to my list of things that really suck.
