Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
My doctor p*ssed me off by giving me a diagnosis of hypertension when I went in for antibiotics for a sinus infection.
My BP was higher than normal, but I'd been taking 12-hour Sudafed (the real stuff...here they make you scan your ID) for several days straight in an effort to keep my sinuses clear.
Bought a BP monitor after that...BP tests fine at home...to be fair I probably also suffer from "white coat syndrome" when getting BP tested in a doctor's office.
