It's absolutely maddening that this is not even uncommon. Doctors think they know best, definitely better than you, and will stand by their sometimes quite obviously idiotic conclusions, leaving you helpless. And in some countries with universal healthcare, it's a lot harder to just go find a better doctor. Screw the whole system. I've got more words to say, but I'll stop here.
I am sorry for what you're going through and wish you all the best.
