I am about 85% now. Everyday getting better, I guess it takes a while for the eroded portions to fully heal. I have an appointment with the doctor who wouldn't do the colonoscopy on me tomorrow just to give him a piece of my mind, and he is going to have a very bad day after I am through with him, I hope I don't get arrested my colon can't take jail sex.

After months of pain and being pushed countless pills (none which worked)and ex gf who I still work with tried to convince me to try chinese medication, so I went to a Chinese med specialist and after drinking some foul herbs (3 different kinds) over 3 weeks, my pains have pretty much disapated tot he point where I can work out play basketball and eat to regain the 20 pounds I lost.
So my conclusion is this.
-Western Dr's are worthless for younger people with chronic pain. The best part of going to the doctor now is they can give you powerful scans to tell you if your organs are F'ed or not from the heavy drinking you did in college.
-Dr's seem most concerned about narcotics, everything you tell them in relation to pain puts them on narcotic alert. Most Dr's would rather have you dead than risk their licence over pills that is obvious because even if you don't want narcotics they lecture you about narcotics before you can finish your symptoms speech. I think it takes their eye off the ball, they hear you say your in pain and they stop listening to you and start thinking about narcotics.
-Most Dr's will write you any SSRI you want or don't want, they will offer you an SSRI for every symptom, they are very concerned about the sex side effects, I assume that's becuase men come back and yell at them for it or because they are addicted to SSRI's themselves and can't get it up. I am fairly convinced they get a big kick back or something out of it, because they love to give these SSRI's to me. I myself was offered Paxil, Zoloft, Remeron, and Cymbalta in a period of 2 months.
-It glaring when you go to several doctors how inconsistent and contradicting they are, One Dr. wants to put you on something and the other thinks it's trash and so forth. The only think they are consistent on is they always want to prescibe you some type of pill and all of them have a favorite SSRI.
-Most Dr's are lazy, I have been to 7 Dr's since my issue and all of them (except the one who wouldn't treat me because I was "too young") told me to look up a particlar drug up on the internet and couldn't/wouldn't answer some basic questions about the drug. I often got the answer "we don't know much about this drug and why it works" WTF? why prescribe it then?
Overall, I am thinking I won't be going back to western doctors very much, I think most of them are losers anyway, most of them are overweight themselves and look horribly overworked and stressed out, from the looks of them I am sure they are addcited to something probably an SSRI. I think from here on out it's going to be homopathic for most stuff and western doctors for colonoscopy type things.
