In reply to My visit to my doc and hot flashes, posted by Dinah on August 29, 2006, at 6:01:22
I'm in the same boat with an unsympathetic gyn doctor. I chalk it up to her lack of personal experience with the symptoms. She's much younger than I am. However, I did get a second opinion a couple of years ago, and the second doctor was even more dismissive of my complaints, and said my gyn was giving me appropriate treatment.
I'm now considering going the alternative, and holistic treatment route. I know that all of this is interconnected - the flashes, the migraines, the disrupted cycles - and that there are healthcare professionals out there who have a better appreciation of how to treat the entire woman and not our individual symptoms.
