When doctors don't know what you know

Spent hours researching my condition only to have my doctor dismiss everything I found. How is this all so unknown to actual medical professionals? Sometimes I wonder if I should just print out research papers and bring them to my appointments. Anyone else feel like they're educating their doctors? #PatientAdvocacy #MedicalGaps #ChronicIllness #BeYourOwnAdvocate #Health #BodyHealth
