1. I find the doc/patient relationship often difficult and certainly complex.

Just think of the whole state of nearly undressed, sitting on a table, rapid fire questions and not always good skill at listening. There is a power play going on, impatience, the financial aspect - fear factor, the whole thing about complete honesty, guilt if you let some things slip....it is pretty miserable, actually. (says the dude laying ass out having a tube rammed up today following force drinking of 140 ounces of foul tasting sludge).

Hang in there......as the doc says, "it will only hurt for a minute" (yeah, right).

2. I understand, Den;

these are uncomfortable situations/positions we are in.

Its not unique, but would be good if your docs made you comfortable. If they deliberately and discernably DON'T do that, I'd look elsewhere. (I know that's not easy.)
