I'm concerned that I'm ill, but my GP said I'm just a hyperchondriac. Do you think she's right?

get a second opinion, my doctor said the same thing to me 13 years ago, i went to see him loads of times begging him to send me for a endoscopy because i was waking up through the night with acid coming up and out of my nose, he said this was impossible and i was a hypochondriac and a drama queen, it went on for years, by the time a different doctor sent me my oesophagus and stomach was full of erosion's and scarred, it was a hiatus hernia causing acid to splash up all the time, i went on medication but it doesn't work very well anymore, im waiting for a operation now and i cant wait, its really changed my life, i hardly go out socialising because i cant drink alcohol, i hardly go for meals out because i can only eat certain things. Ive always had respect for the medical profession but you do get some nasty doctors, my friend died at 40 because hers wouldn't take her stomach trouble seriously, he said those famous words you are a hypochondriac, it was cancer and if she had it sorted it might not of happened, get a second opinion and don't let anyone tell you different...
