Specializes in Psychiatry

Why are you: Having trouble believing the three doctors who have already evaluated you? Are you hoping that something is wrong? The doctors online can't examine you - so we can't assess your issue. If you find that your health fears are taking over - you might consider cognitive behavioral therapy. It may help you with your feelings of anxiety & anger as well. Take care.
