Why Should We Believe Lies To Cover Other People Personal Motives?

I had been treated by a health care professional for over ten years before I found information about the ADRENAL GLAND that says it can’t heal itself and it cannot be repaired, so why didn’t this healthcare provider tell me this? Why do some healthcare providers leave the patient with the impression that the treatment they are receiving is going to fix or even cure the problem, when it won’t?

My Adrenal Gland failed completely before I realized my health care provider was more sure of his treatments being the answer to my problems, than in his ability to finding out what my problems were, and administer the correct treatment for my problem. After ten years without results, yet alone obtaining a cure, we both agreed that the treatments weren’t merited any longer and we parted company.

The care they had been administering finally wore out the slow deterioration that had been taking place during their treatments, and it had become obvious to me, the patient, that what we had done all these years had been useless and in no way could have repaired the medical problem I thought this treatment was to help cure it.

What purpose does this ignorance serve? For the patient and for the health care official? For the health care official, the only reasons I have ever found for this type of treatment is money or laziness.

For the patient, the disappointment runs neck and neck with the anger of paying so much money for nothing. When they learn that all the treatments had done was nothing more than what the body was doing on its own.

When the patient does not know they cannot be cured, but continues treatment believing they can, only to learn they had been deceived, the anger finally builds to a level that is beyond the normal feeling of being upset. This anger takes on the attributes of rage.

Is it possible this problem can and should be handled so that the patient does not pay the price physically and add to the disillusionment that has developed toward medical care which, today, is so obvious less than what we all believed it was doing?
If I mentioned the caretaker’s name, he wouldn’t like it. I certainly did not like his deceiving me while he was being paid for something he knew would never help, yet alone cure.

I find it difficult to accept this type of “care” without feeling that I have been made a fool. Am I being too sensitive, or is it about time the victims of poor care find out they are being used. It is sad that we need to be wary of our health care providers instead of retaining respect for them.
