since paramedic is your field, I guess you have seen
GSW?
MI?
MVA?
Acute COPD?
CVA?
I guess those MDs didn't do anything and don't know what they're talking about.

My questions are.... Why are there over 18 million kids under the age of 13 on anti depessents. Most of them come with the side effect of increased suicidal ideation? Why was my grandfather get a nitro drip and nitro pasted when it is totally contraindicated by a stroke? Because the dr misdiagnosed and mistreated leading to his death. Mal-practice insurance? No way, what doctor still carries it? Why was I being treated for chrons/collitus for 10 years only to be told they were wrong and now they decide it's now GERD years later. Was spending thousand of dollars on tests, specialist, meds, MRI and mra's justifable , hospital stays and stress of worrying, only to be told somebody made a mistake and everybody has just been wrongfully treating you?

However, the answer is simple. Everyone makes mistakes. Doctors are human.
Out of thousands correctly diagnosed and treated conditions, people only remember the bad ones.
However, you accuse ALL doctors of incompetence based on your own experience.
also, you can't even spell Crohn's and colitis. You're sure read up on your own condition?
We MDs love it when patients take no responsibility for their own well being, expect us to do everything, and blame us when something goes wrong.

Without the MR, I can't comment on the specific case.

Not saying doctors dont make mistakes, as any human would. They misdiagnose a lot, but they also have saved a lot. Its a win/lose situation, kind of like life itself
Btw, my copay is only $20.

On a note, havnt really noticed it twitching today. Been taking vitamins and havnt had a drink since. Maybe my drinking habits were starting to finally catch up with my health (that was noticeable). Guess its time to cool off the juice for awhile before my health gets worse. My liver might start twitching

I don't drink that much, and my eyes certainly don't twitch.
