Funny Cindy, I had never thought of men getting better treatment from a woman. Interesting. I have also heard many women say that male doctors who come from India are very sympathetic to women with conditions that cause chronic pain. I have an appointment with a rheumy who just happens to be from India, he's supposedly one of the best and most compassionate doctors around to diagnose fibro.
That theory is true in my personal experiences. It seems that the most sympathetic doctors are older, male, foreign born, and received at least part of their medical education/training abroad. I would guess that the last part is because the therapeutic use of narcotics doesn't have nearly as much stigma attached in other countries.
