Told like 13 different doctors none gave a shit.
Must be the VA and lack of private insurance.

It's generally the same even with private doctors/insurance in the USA. Doctors here work long hours, are subject to perverse incentives, and most of them will rush through your case. Unless you're lucky and find a good one.
The one time in my life when I truly needed doctors, they took out my appendix, then told me afterwards they were wrong and I didn't have appendicitis. If I wasn't insured they were going to charge 13 grand for that too. Would have been double the money if it happened today.
Oh well. I try to look out for my own health as best I can so I'm not at the mercy of a broken system.
