It’s your life, but being cagey about giving information to your doctor seems like a bad idea. They have reasons for asking questions like this. If they are also rude or unwilling to help you, you should find a different doctor.
From my IT troubleshooting perspective, I’ve noted that many things my doc asks are for a sanity check on their part. Same reason I may ask “dumb” questions of an end user.
Only had one doc in life who could see me once a year and remember who I was, what my issues were, etc. That’s damned unusual.
I’ve really started fucking around with my answer too this.
It’s been awhile. Honestly can’t remember. Period? What’s that? Hmmm, maybe I’m pregnant? Did you read my chart? Yesterday.
All answers I’ve genuinely given at this point.
