I'm so sorry this happened to you and I'm glad you are starting to feel at least somewhat back to your old self. I definitely understand where this opinion of docs is coming from as there are definitely some incompetent docs out there but don't you think that your opinion is largely based around an anecdotal experience that is probably pretty abnormal? Medicine as a field is still pretty unscientific in a lot of ways. To me it feels like docs are like alchemists before the discovery of the atom/modern chemistry. They're doing the best they can with the tools at hand but their field has some fundamental gaps in knowledge. Is that really the doctors fault?
That's just my two cents. Obviously this doesn't do much to help folks dealing with poorly understood illnesses but I hope it helps balance out the "all doctors are idiots" opinion that sometimes comes up in threads like this.
