Very very mad at my endocrinologist

He is driving me insane. He keeps insisting I have pcos even though the metformin did the opposite of what pcos patients would react to it. And the guy didn't remember a single thing about my case. He forgot I don't have milk discharge because of prior surgeries and yet every visit he keeps asking about it. He actually said I do have thyroiditis but because their normal levels he doesn't want to do anything about it. That was the first time he ever said I had thyroiditis. And he still won't do a full pituatary panel on me. He insisted the tumor is decreasing in size because of the medication which is not true because it's still the same size. And my parents encouraged him to keep misdiagnosising me. I'm so mad I can scream. I am even more mad at my parents because they kept insisting I should not have spoken up when he kept insisting I have disorders I don't have.

I'm still trying to find my ns. Unfornately for my my high prolactin levels keep me from just being able to deal with it without the endocrinologist. My parents trusted him completely when he was making mistakes repeatedly.

That's true...my pcp said she could order the tests but it would be redundant since ns ordered them from endo

  I went to several endos b4 I decided to stick with my PCP for treatment of my thyroid...the endo would not medicate me either,....and am much better off, I found soooo many endo's that also treat diabetes don't recognize hashimoto's and too many in this area do, so I am saving my time, money and sanity by not going to another one.
