The most annoying bit in mine is "Patient denies anxiety. Patient denies health anxiety. I suspect this is all health anxiety" followed by constant dismissals until I eventually insisted on getting a private MRI that showed lesions. :| I think comments about 'health anxiety'/malingering are particularly infuriating because they colour the opinions of every doctor you see from then on.

I saw "patient seems distressed upon learning she has MS" and was annoyed at that. Like no shit Sherlock. No one also bothered to explain what MS was at that time.
