If there's one thing that 2016 (really 2015) onwards has taught me, it's to give absolutely zero of my damns to "experts". Unless I am paying them cold hard cash or some other incentive to work for me, and even then I will still be wary.
Anecdata, my mother's cancer diagnosis (which she passed from a year later) took longer than it should have because her general physician was a piece of crap and kept insisting it was just bad constipation.
- fakedang 2y agoI mean you're still paying them a bunch of cash, yet most of them are still morons. Take a first, second, third, whatever opinion always. And best not to show previous diagnosis reports to the next guy, as that tends to bias them. Had a "reputed" doctor-professor at an Indian medical school who barely looked at my endoscopy and colonoscopy reports and insisted I was simply suffering from stress and diet issues, when it was actually the signs of Crohn's disease, which was correctly diagnosed by NHS doctors.
