Diagnosis for a Mystery Woman.....

[Guest guest]

è Ree Ann,

è What would be even nicer than being considered a

è mystery would be to find a GI

è who is concerned enough to do the detective work

è required to solve the mystery!

è

è Glad to know I'm not alone, though.

è

è What was it that finally led the doctors to decide it was

è your pancreas after

è all?

Dear ,

I never did get a diagnosis from him. He referred me to a teaching hospital

in Dallas to be seen by their GIs... This doc ordered an MRI of my back (I

thought he was nuts...) and it showed an old compression fracture. So all my

pain got blamed on that. I did not receive a diagnosis until I moved back

home and went to my old family doc. Took him in a bunch of info about

pancreatitis and told this is what I have... He agreed.... That is how I got

my diagnosis. Now it is just an accepted fact.

Lots of Gentle Hugs,

ReeAnn

ReeAnn,

Wow! That was pretty smart of you. I think sometimes doctors do need to be led

by the nose!
