Guest guest Posted August 1, 2006 Report Share Posted August 1, 2006 Hi, I was diagnosed a few years ago. When I told my mom age 73 at the time to get tested she told me her doctor told her he wasn’t going to test her. I couldn’t believe it. He said she showed no symptoms. He finally tested her and the results he said were negative. 2 years later she was airlifted off a cruise ship. She was in the late stages of cancer. He missed that diagnosis too. In the hospital they did lots of pre-ops and after I asked for the celiac test too. it came back positive. My mom said when she got back from the cruise she was thinking of changing doctors. it was too late.. You should trust your instinct. If you feel you are fighting with your doctor change doctors. They should be listening to you. fran Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
