i have the same problem. i called my primary care to say i hurt my neck in the shower, they said the earliest they could see me was 2 months into the future.
i had step throat, they refused me antibiotics because although i had all the classic symptoms, the strep test was negative. a bottle of penicillin i had at home cured me pretty quickly.
i had pnemonia, i told them this was the sickest i have ever been in my life. my whole body was in pain and i had trouble breathing, especially at night. they told me to drink water and rest. after 2 weeks i got another appointment, i was in really bad shape. they told drink water and rest. 3rd week same, but i refused to leave. i reminded them i lost 40lbs, only then did they take a real look at me.
> "Not necessarily their fault"
I do put the fault on them. i think there is something around 'white male, send them home' mentality.
