I worked in gyms for number of years and have been weight training, body building, powerlifting and involved in martial arts for even longer.
And although by no means do I consider myself to have the medical knowledge of a doctor I do have a good understanding of the body annd how it works especially my own.
This I found though created more problems with doctors.
I would see a specialist who would think they knew what the problem was and commence treatment when the treatment had no effect because their diagnosis was wrong they would write my problems off as being all in my mind the more I would press them on looking deeper the more they became convinced I was reading up on medical conditions and then inventing symptoms.
