Answers, But No Solution

So the verdict from my doctor's office is that my blood test is normal, and as far as they're concerned I'm healthy. I learned this after calling three times today, getting disconnected once, called Melissa twice, and having them lose my record at least once. They also hung up on me immediately after telling me the result, before I could ask any pesky questions about interpretation or follow-up, or asking how I was doing and whether I was improving at all.

This is good news, I suppose, in that I now know at least one thing that is *not* wrong with me. On the other hand, I do not know what *is* wrong, if anything. I suppose it's possible that I'm just being lazy and a hypochondriac, and I'm really just fine - that's honestly the most likely answer. Still, I'd like to know for certain. Or barring that possibility, I'd like a medical professional to at least hear me out and maybe pretend to pay attention to me. Currently, I'm just driving myself crazy wondering if I'm imagining everything, and it's making the whole situation just that much more miserable.

Does anyone in the Medford/Somerville/etc. area know of a decent GP? It seems I'm in the market for a new one.....

I'd recommend mine - except that he has a similar sort of problem. (Though it's less of a "we don't care about you, go away" vibe and more of a "busybusybusysosorrywehaven'tgottentoyouwe'reswampedhere'saquicksynopsistalktoyoulater" vibe.)

I find this frustrating, as the GP I grew up with was excellent on the 'consideration and listening skills' front - he always took the time to talk, and to listen. But he's in Wellesley, which is inconvenient to get to.
