I sympathize with you. I just quit going unless I absolutely have to. Last time I went was for a lymph node the size of a ping-pong ball that had been that big for over 6 months. He looked at it and said 'yeah, you have larger salivary glands than most people'. He then proceeded with a routine check up where he listened to my heart and asked if I knew I had a heart murmur. I have had a murmur all of my life! It is in all of my records! I had rheumatic fever as a child and that's what caused it. Anyway, he ordered a ultrasound of my heart. 2 days later he emailed e and said I have mild Aortic Valve Stenosis. Nothing to worry about.
So - Both of my parents died of cancer. He did not address the swollen lymph node that I still have. He 'discovered' a murmur and told me I have a heart valve problem that is no big deal - thru email. He doesn't think I should follow up with a cardiologist, since he is just a GP. I am getting tired and more depressed all the time and have no where to go. And YES - he pushes pills BIG TIME! It SUX!

Errr....sorry :( That's just not much help! Just letting you know there are others out there! Try to find a doctor who will listen - if you can. That is the most important thing!
