Went through the same 2 minute bs with a lump in my back. Cept it was an actual doctor who was like "yeah that big arse thing in your back, don't worry about it until it grows" Cool, i pay out the arse for health insurance and this is what i get. Take a fricking test at least since I took off work and drove out here to see you.

Sounds like he was saving you money and time. I'm sure if you asked him to run some tests, he'd be fine with letting you blow hundreds if not thousands of your hard earned dollars to give you the same answer you started with.


ETA-but know that it'll be expensive and stuff like that is why you insurance costs so much. People DEMAND expensive test when we can give them a simple, quick answer. I see it every day. I'll gladly spend their money on test I don't feel they need after they insist on them.
