Dear Kelly...
I'm so sorry you have to go through this. I've never had any major medical problems or experience with many doctors, so I can't say I know what you're feeling, but I sure wish you didn't have to. Certainly doctors should show more compassion to their patients. Making them feel unimportant won't help them heal any better.

I hope things get straightened out and you're able to be painfree.

Don't be sorry for being negative, you're not. You're a wonderful person and have every right to be pissed and upset. I wish I knew the answer to your problems, but I don't. Please do know I am here for you (and sincerely sorry I wasn't at my computer when you IM'ed me.) Please feel free to do so any time, but I'm not always at my PC.

{{HUGS}} to you and well wishes...
