Daily Prompt: Trust your gut feeling when you go and see your Doctor
via Daily Prompt: Trust
Nearly every day I find another article about a person who had found it hard to get their Doctor to believe them about their illness, in particular with Fibromyalgia which they call the 'hidden disease'.
Sufferers go to see their Doctors who have blood tests and scans which all seem to come back clear. Sometimes they are just simply sent away to deal with their pain without any type of treatment.
Personally I think you should always trust your gut feeling whenever you go and see your Doctor about your ailment. Write down your symptoms in a diary format to give to your Doctor and don't come away without a proper prognosis even if it means you have to go back a few times before you get to the bottom of it. Deep down we all know our own bodies and so should always trust our gut feelings.
