My horrible doctor experience
I went to a clinic telling the doctor I had been to Vietnam and picked up an infection from there. He appeared sympathetic and told me that the infection would be difficult to treat as Vietnam has high antibiotic resistance. Despite this he prescribed me first line antibiotics bactrim and noroflox. With one search you can see this antibiotics generally don’t work with bacteria from Vietnam. So he wasted my time with knowledge they wouldn’t work. All he did was destroy my stomach. Then proceeded to tell me i probably don’t have a UTI at all, and it’s Interstitial Cystitis, and if I think otherwise then I must’ve studied for years and should become a nurse. 😡 Just terrible.
