Learn to be your patient advocate. No one knows your body better than you do. Just because you are seeing a physician does not mean he/she is treating you properly. GET COPIES OF YOUR MEDICAL NOTES, TEST, ETC.... You will be surprised what is in them or not in them. Also, you might find out you had abnormal test results and were never told about them or treated for them. Speak up and if you know you are not getting better SEEK OUT another Physician.
