Honey
Your stay in hospital sounds horrific. I do hope you feel more secure at home - and that your swollen stomach gets better.

Kelly, hi! As for male and female docs, my experience is that there are decent specimens of both (and the opposite.) To me, there definitely is a difference between disciplines - from both a personal and professional standpoint. Surgeons seem much less able to think beyond the anatomical, while physicians tend to treat the person. I'm lucky to have a good team of GP, rheumatologist, GI man and bone specialist - 75% are female; coincidence.......hmmmm?

Honey, how awful for you! I hope you have complained and will see justice, and will also feel better soon.
