new doctor doesn’t know what mecfs is

Vent/Rant

i moved recently and got a new doctor

I understand mecfs isnt widely understood or knew about but when i explained it to her over the phone she sighed and said “so just fibromyalgia”

i am going to an appointment with her soon and im really nervous because my old doctor really took me seriously and respected my diagnosis and this one seems so impatient

ive spoke to others that have seen her and they’ve all said she’s very much like that and will get things wrong a lot and even need basic medical care explained to her by her patients
