Hello utopizen,
Well you may have a point, in the past I possibly have been rather less subtle than I could have been, I do now however see a fantastic doc who calls his appointments with me - patient directed consultations!- clever man.
I would say however that most docs over here in the uk tend to feel that you are trespassing on their territory if you even make a subtle comment,
the guy who said I was difficult because I read books for example, was commenting literally on what I did,- read up information on my condition,
the "difficult part" was in my view a projection onto me.
However as I said no one is perfect and I dont expect docs to be so, but to discourage taking at least some responsibity or interest in ones own health seems very closed minded to me.Glenn
