Guest guest Posted August 6, 2002 Report Share Posted August 6, 2002 I today attended my osteopath for the pain in my left shoulder as massage and everything else I had tried was not helping. Whilst I was there he took my bp and, remembering that my last bp at the dr's surgery was 160/82 - todays was 151/81 and that is without any medication for at least 1 week - just goes to prove that it is not really the 'white coat' syndrome because my osteopath wears a white coat but more the trauma of knowing that you are going to be treated like an idiot - I was extremely happy with this reading may I say.

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2002 Report Share Posted August 7, 2002 Maybe it is part of the training these days, you must learn how to treat your patients like idiots or you don't pass. You know that would be funny if it wasn't almost true. Marianne > lol " treated like an idiot " we must be seeing the same dr. > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
