See, it's all great that we are aware of the symptoms of oc and how to be proactive, but the medical profession needs to listen to women as well!
This is so true!! i've had to seriously fight to be heard over issues with bleeding, fatigue, and a whole list of things - the doctor pretty much said stop breastfeeding, it will fix everything. i had to request blood tests, i had to request ultrasound, i had to request referral to gyne. yeah, i know places with specialists have waiting lists and are hard to get into, and maybe GP's are trying to weed out the "non-pressing" cases - but at some point, they have to respect that we live in these bodies, we know that things aren't right. and even if it's normal, it's better to rule out anything properly rather than dismiss a potentially deadly problem!!

N2L - glad you got the all clear hun
