I stand by my assumption of the implications of your tone.

Why, when you never answer anything clearly unless it supports what you said? If you find an error in your judgment you let that point fall by the wayside. Here's where you and I started:

The ER does bad things to people, the doctors see people at their worst when they are under huge stresses, and as a result patients tend to lie, tell half-truths, and be extremely vauge. I've grown up hearing all the stories of this and now when I hear one I'm very skeptical of everything else you say. "My body decided it was fed up", is one of these, it gives no infomation but the patient will of course expect the doctor to know what in hell they're talking about. I'm not a doctor (I pray I'll never have to do clinical practice) so I'm not claiming this based on first person experience, but I grew up around it.

My father drove heavy construction equipment, but I'm not jumping on a giant steam shovel anytime soon.
Oh, and dismissing a woman's assertations of negative effects of hormonal based medication, something you know nothing about and never will, sounds to me like part of the intricate roots from where misogyny continues to grow.
