Today, after months of random vomiting with no apparent cause, I finally got some tests done. The doctor says there's nothing wrong with me and that it's all just in my head. Great. FML

Today, I hit the six-year mark for daily vomiting. All the doctor can say is that it's psychological. FML

Today, my doctor informed me that the tests we've been doing the previous months show no sign of leukemia. I was just about to express my relief when he casually followed up with, "Never mind, there's still a lot of other blood-related diseases we need to look out for." FML

Today, I saw my doc about the painful swelling I've had in my arm all week. He seemed totally out of it, and ended up telling me it's all in my head, despite the swelling. When I respectfully suggested it might be a blood issue, he just said, "Nah". FML

Today, my doctor called with my test results, which seem to tell him that there's absolutely nothing wrong with me. I'm still sitting here with an appendage that I'd swear was dispensing napalm, but now I have a $500 bill to go with it. FML

Touch me I'm sick

Today, I went to the doctor with some serious physical symptoms that amount to being effectively disabled. She didn’t even ask any questions or examine me before telling me it was all purely psychological. I barely managed to convince her to at least order some blood tests, as a formality. FML

Mystery

Today, I had an endoscopy and nothing wrong was found. So why have I been vomiting up everything, including water, for the past 10 days? FML

Today, I was at the doctors office after throwing up for the past week. My diagnosis? Apparently I'm the first pregnant man. After several minutes of me freaking out and him explaining how it was possible, he told me he was joking and that I'm fine, but my reaction was the best thus far. FML

Today, I went to see a doctor because I have been feeling of pressure in my chest. After running numerous tests, I was told I was perfectly healthy and had nothing to worry about. I made it as far as the front door before I collapsed and had to be rushed to the hospital. FML

Full of it

By romoangel - 21/04/2020 05:00

Today, I felt a very sharp pain, like my appendix was going to burst. After going to the doctor, I was rushed to the hospital to get tests done. The doctors later told me there's nothing wrong, I was just constipated. I went to the hospital for them to basically tell me I'm full of shit. FML

Today, I got my colonoscopy results back. I had hoped they'd show what's been causing my stomach pains for the last few weeks, but instead it turns out that my colon is healthy and normal. I basically got cornholed for no goddamn reason. FML

You should have vomited in his office and then asked if that was in your head too.

I was doing that for awhile, later I came to realize that it was because I was stressed about something that I kept denying.

My therapist told me the same thing after I spent an hour talking about my severe anxiety attacks...

Vomit in his face and get another opinion from a doctor who isn't lazy.

You might have anxiety and not know. I used to have problems where I would just puke all damn day for no reason. They put me on anxiety meds and I don't anymore. And I got tons of tests with no results.

"It's all in your head" is doctor speak for "I do not know what's wrong with you or why, but I want to seem like I'm really good at my job." I've been told several of my conditions we all in my head, then have another doctor, more honest doctor, tell me the real reason.

Puke on his floor, and say it's more in your stomach :P

I had so much trouble convincing doctors I had a weird problem like that which had suddenly become worse. Turns out I have a muscle reflex problem which no doctor thought of because it was so simple. Really got me PO'd.

Maybe you're eating something your body can't handle or drinking too much water? Kinda funny how everyone on here thinks they're smarter than their doctors though!
