Except that a disturbing number of doctors insist that they are always right and you are always wrong.
A year ago, one insisted vehemently—to the point of yelling—that I shouldn't be supplementing Vitamin K because my potassium levels were fine.
- aspenmayer 1y agoI can only presume that they got the atomic symbol for potassium (K) mixed up with vitamin K. That’s so wrong it crosses over into being “not even wrong” but entirely wrong and beside the point. I hope they aren’t your doctor anymore, or anyone’s. Please tell me you reported this incident to the state medical board. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Not_even_wrong https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Not_even_wrong > "What you said was so confused that one could not tell whether it was nonsense or not."

- dreamcompiler 1y agoOMG! This doctor shouldn't be practicing medicine if he thinks Vitamin K is potassium. OTOH Vitamin K can cause blood clots.* I assume you know this and are being appropriately attentive to the issue. * The K comes from Koagulationsvitamin which it was called in Danish when first discovered.
