➸ Almost Alike: A Medical Cautionary Tale

If you have ever had problems because your doctor was looking for one underlying condition, when you really had two, three, four, or even fifteen, then the above post is one you should probably click on and read, and pass on to the medical professionals in your life. I really wish I’d known all this before I almost died a bunch of times, which is why I wrote it. A lot of doctors think they’re looking for one condition, and miss the fact that they’re really looking at a bunch of conditions with potentially contradictory symptoms. And a lot of patients die or become very ill before the doctors realize their mistake, even when it’s a good doctor.
