  • As an Indian medical student, I thank you on behalf of my whole country ❤😭
  • @c.m.303
    So clear thank you. And for the medical students...just so you know...the average time to get diagnosed for this is 5-10 years. It probably isn't nearly as rare as they say it is since the GI clinics are so full it takes months to get in. I personally seen top doctors in San Antonio, Austin, Rochester and others. Not one of them bothered to look at all my symptoms together to figure this out. It literally took me helping a friend with her unrelated tumor to stumble upon this info and it fits every symptom all the way to the right sided heart failure. Word to the wise. If you don't learn to look at the patient as a whole, if you are so micro specialized that you can't recognize "other" symptoms to diagnose the zebra...you will miss it just like all the others in the last 10 years. Don't be the zombie that will only look for the horse. I don't know why schools teach students to ignore the unusual...but from my research, everyone with IBS (in other words "the doctor has no clue"), should have the specific blood work and a PET scan just to cover all the bases. What is the point in waiting until the patient feels like they are nearly dead and they figure it out 10 years later before you finally test them????? No wonder there is a cancer epidemic...please do better, and search until you find the cause, (meaning the solution should help...if not, that was not the right diagnosis...keep looking, broaden your scope, until you can prove it).
