Doctors, while tremendously useful and helpful in some situations, can often be the source of extreme frustration. I've had problems with my nose for years, so, today I had a scope where the doctor stuck a camera up my nose and wiggled it around for a bit. This procedure, backed up by a previous procedure, €325 plus health insurance costs later and he tells me: "Good news, there is nothing physically wrong, you just have a sensitive nose".
Really.
So, the frustration sets in that I can still expect to sneeze and wheeze in the mornings; be blocked or runny at random intervals; have to take a cocktail of sprays and drugs and, continue to have pain in my face and random eye leaks. However, the relief is that there is nothing wrong, no operations.
It has happened me so many times that the doctor tells me there is nothing physically wrong, gives ailment a name and then recommends that I persevere with the original course of action. Very frustrating. Where is the miracle cure? JML should go into medicine, they can come up with miracle cleaning solutions for your home, why not remedies for the body?
