Went to the primary care doctor and I don't get it. This doctor last time actually seemed pretty decent but this time he was borderline worthless and rude. Basically "that falls outside my scope" to literally everything but also wouldn't refer me to a uralogist like the urgent care doc said to do yesterday. Probably won't go back. He gave the impression that he knows actually nothing. I don't understand how this is even the same doc as last time. Wouldn't order the tests the allergist asked him to. Didn't even bother to figure out what my 2 hospital visits were for in the last week. Was completely unaware my liver enzymes were high which have been high since the beginning and I mentioned it to him last time. I don't know man. Oh well. I'm doing some treatment stuff at home with elemental diet stuff and probiotics so I'm gonna try my best not to let this get to me but it's just hard to see what I consider a grave injustice and just let it go.

Trying to decide if I go to back to my previous doc that didn't feel the lump in my neck and wanted to get me surgery against the specialist and surgeon recommendation because "there is no risk" or do I try a 4th primary care doc and start all over again getting my records sent over and explaining my complicated 9 month medical history. Like, am I getting just mega unlucky or is there no point in expecting anything at all from primary care docs and I just should stop scheduling appointments with them? It's not like they remotely "coordinate care" or explain my options or anything. What do they actually do?

These are the kinds of experiences that 10-7 years ago when I had the same problem and it eventually went away, I never bothered getting follow up tests and trying to figure out what it was because I was just so convinced doctors would do nothing and figure out nothing and here it is years later and I feel like I'm right back to the same point just much less healthy. Just try to solve it on my own and forget there is a medical system outside of the ER. It'll at least be better for my mental health.
