Well like mentioned before, doctors are nothing more than humans, there are much ignorance among them as well. Especially when the problem is about fields which the medical world yet have not understood fully; such as blushing, excessive sweating, central nervous system etc. Instead of saying "I am sorry I don't know" they turn to the closest solution they can find and they stick to it. In this case it was the anxiety explanation (yeah sure).
Cure mate I don't which country you are from but in most developed countries you have have rights because the medical system is there to serve you. You should have the right to switch to another doctor and you better do so. Stick with this guy will obviously lead to nothing. I experienced the same back in Sweden, an idiot doctor making a small thing out of my problem and offered me Zoloft, Inderal and god knows what. The quack actually also recommended ETS for me, even without an examination just during our first talk.
Do not trust those thieves. Since the medical world does not understand blushing, a single random doctor will most certainly not. The only thing one can do is looking on the internet, in books etc. for different solutions and then try them out, or go to the doctor and demand to do this and that test - though it didn't work out in your case. I have done loads of tests, brain scans, blood here, urine there and all after I demanded to get them done after doing my own homework.
It resulted in that I now know what's wrong with me - an overactive Sympathetic Nerve System which most likely is also linked to my blushing. High histamine levels work as a neuro-transmitter to the Sympathetic Nerve System so now I am trying this cure to see if there is any difference. If it doesn't, I plan to go through a dozen acupuncture sessions since it's being scientifically proved that acupuncture reduces the activity of the Sympathetic Nerve System, and i believe that together with herbs it can do wonders.
I am sorry to say, but the doctors doesn't understand this, so if we want to change our lives we have to do our own homework. Know your rights and be persistent - there is no reason why this sulky bastard should not let you test your histamine levels. Set your own goal to call him or to arrange another doctor before this week is over.
It's also more usual than we think, that drugs is over-prescribed due to the power of the pharmaceptic companies.
