[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ugh. Why do people keep referring to the OP as a "doctor"?

She's a speech therapist. Many of us wouldn't even consider that to be a medical professional. It's basically a glorified teacher. Actually, I have a lot more respect for actual teachers.

Anyway, I'm late 30s, highly educated, and I think for myself too. Couldn't care less if doctors think I'm "difficult". Guess it's lucky for all involved that [b]we choose to live a very healthy lifestyle and so don't have much need for them anyway[/b].[/quote]

What arrogance. My dad lived a very healthy lifestyle too, but turns out he needs bypass surgery due to a genetic condition that creates a huge amount of plaque build-up in his heart.

My Mom exercised  regularly (walking, aerobics, circuit training), ate healthy, and slept 8 hours a day. She ended up with stage 3 lung cancer, heart issues, and was just diagnosed with Alzheimers. My Dad eats like crap (too much and a good amount of junk), smoked for 40 years, barely exercised and has had a knee replaced.

You keep assuming that your very healthy lifestyle is going to be the cure all. Hopefully it will work out better for you then it did my Mom. Me, I am going to take good care of myself and find a doctor that I like and build a good rapport with her.[/quote]
