You are so right, Michelle! Doctors have been on their pedestal for so long, they can get very defensive when someone has the nerve to simply ask a question or wants to have a conversation about a treatement or medication. Although most of us don't have medical degrees, we DO have something the doctors don't. We have been living in our bodies for 20, 30, 40, 50+ years! Although we may not know the name of a condition or perhaps can't even accurately describe what's wrong, we KNOW when something just isn't working. Men & women have to remember that although we aren't experts on a specific illness or disease, we are the very best experts on our own bodies.
