Re: Emotions out of whack

would you feel more comfortable talking to a female doctor about these issues? A female GP? I've been going to a female GP for about 20 years now ever since I had a pain in my neck (seriously!) and my male GP ignored it until one year (I saw him only once a year) he said oh I see you've been complaining about this for 6 years!!! then he took notice and it was solved but I said to myself, Sarah you idiot, 6 years!!! change doctors now and I did and they were the ones who found my cancer, who listened and acted on what I told them. I decided male doctors think we're all hypochondriacs. So consider having a woman on your team if you don't already. However my lead oncologist is an elderly man and I adore him!
hugs and love
