Outstanding job of educating another doctor. That's exactly the kind of thing everyone needs to be doing. You've paved the way for countless people coming behind you, well done! [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Yea Stuart!

I wish all doctors in the entire world would actually listen to their patients rather than believe they are God's gift.

We know our bodies.  We know when something is wrong with our bodies, and we are not stupid.  With the internet available to just about everyone now, we can do a little research in to our symptoms, CH, or anything else.  Then ask our doctors to confirm our fears, or if not, tell us what is actually going on.  The doctors treat us like imbeciles, completely discount anything we might have attempted to learn on our own, refuse to even consider any information we might have learned, and refuse to acknowledge that we do have brains.  

Chalk up one more doctor in to the CH Educated column.
