I'm kind of getting tired of educated guessing. My son has been ill a lot lately, and we have had lots of tests run to get only vague answers. I know that sometimes things are not as they seem. I know that worrying will get me nowhere, but I want to scream sometimes. A weatherman is paid for predictions, but doctors should not be. A doctor should look for evidence and treat what they can. I am so tired of hearing, "it looks like it might be. . . ", or "let's try this." I know that doctors are just people and that they just have a different kind of education than I do, but I so wish they would think more like, "what if he was my son? How would I treat this then?" I feel like if they can't fix him then they shouldn't be paid anything. Or rather, if all i get is indefinite answers, then all you get from me is half of your pay.
Oh the frustration.
