ABSOLUTELY!!

Not just because of the meds. You should never have to deal with a doctor that talks down to you! I have spent 10 yrs trying to find out what is wrong with me. Doctors kept telling me it must be depression because blood tests didn't come back with anything.

I just found out about a week ago that I have Narcolepsy!! I had to deal with ppl thinking I was lazy and not wanting to help me for 10 yrs. As irritating as it is to switch doctors all the time, it was worth all the hassle. If I hadn't changed until I found a doctor who cared, I would have wasted my entire life sleeping and missing out on my kids growing up!

My advice would definately be to never settle for a doctor who won't listen to what you have to say and care about you. YOU know YOUR body better than anyone else.
