How do I find a Doctor who doesn't think I'm a flake?

OK, I've just about had it! Another week of high fever and severe pain! I took it as long as I could before I called the Doc! I get his rather dippy PA and after explaining that I have chronic pelvic adhesive disease, she tells me that yes, if I've had abdominal surgery before (like 10 times!), I might have a little adhesion in that area! My whole gut is full of adhesions! She says "No Mrs. Gates, it really doesn't sound like you need an antibiotic, it's probably just a flu bug!" "Let me call out some Librax for you, that will calm you down and make you feel much better!" Yeah, sedate me with Librium and a muscle relaxer and I won't bother you any more with my piddlely problems! I really don't know how to live with this much longer! I missed another two days of work, I don't know how much longer my employer will take this! HELP! I don't know what else to do!
