It seems like doctors, no matter what their field is, tend to have a problem with patients telling them what they think is wrong with them. Since they're the doctor, they need to be telling you what's wrong, even though they have no expertise in your true condition. They don't want to admit they don't know and want to throw pills at you and send you off. I've found that any doctor who handles only general practices, not a specific area, are useless for when you have a serious problem you know you have and is not a common illness or condition. With my past doctors, I could convince them that I had anything but what I really had, just by using stereotypes. That's what they do, because they don't know very much about specific disorders.
