Same for my family doctor – however, for good reason. They aren’t trained in this area – they are more body and internal medicine. My doc says I’m too old to treat with the typical drugs. Doc, I’d cut a couple years off the end of my life if it means the REST of it could be good and productive. Quality over quantity for me.
He even asked “Bill, you are 54 – you’ve lived your whole life with this, why bother with it now?”
I wanted to slug him, seriously – I mean – doc, if you had chronic head aches that stopped you from doing a lot of things in life, caused you trouble at work, kept you from thinking clearly, kept you from finishing projects, getting ahead, and suddenly, someone said “oh, I know what that is, there’s treatment for that” – would you walk away????
I mean to me that was totally stupid to ask WHY I was concerned “so late in life” and why I cared now?
