October 24th, 25th, 2012: Good Doctors?

All the feels I have are being converted into pain in my ears.  I have never had an earache this bad where it radiates throughout my face.  There might also be a chance that the pain in my face is sinus congestion from the evil allergies this year.  I've been trying a few different things this week but if Monday rolls around and I don't feel any type of improvement then I'll have to give in and go someplace to have them take a look at it.

Speaking of those types of places, does anyone have any experience going to a minute clinic at a CVS? This is where I'm considering going instead of paying a huge doctor visit bill at a hospital.  I've just never been to one of those before and don't even know if they'd be worth it either.

I'm slightly jaded when it comes to doctors.  It seems like every time I get the courage to go see one when something is wrong, they never find anything wrong or tell me anything useful. It's also hard since I moved here to Minnesota to find a primary Doctor I can trust and would like to continue to see.  The only positive experience I have had medically related was with the lady doctor at planned parenthood when I went in for my yearly check up.  She was super nice and I felt very comfortable around her.  She didn't make me feel like an idiot or say strange things about the size of my uterus like another lady doctor had said.

I don't know what it is about some doctors but I just feel like they are judging me.  Sure they are trying to figure out what ales me but do they have to make me feel like a terrible person for getting sick in the first place?  Maybe I'm just jaded from the doctor that literally made me feel like an idiot for not coming in sooner, and then he didn't even find anything wrong with me.  "Oh why didn't you come in sooner?" (Insert judging glare here) So you can decide that nothing is wrong with me? Gee thanks Mister.  That sounds like a great idea.  I should pay you lots of money for something that I'm pretty sure now was mental, or in a completely different organ than where they looked.

So what I ask, from those of you who might read this in the twin cities area, where are all the good doctors at and I don't mean the one with the blue box (although I'll take that too).
