[QUOTE="GC7, post: 3391633, member: 2455"] I would say that's the flaw of modern medicine in general. You can only confirm the presence of things we already know exist. I think what we often WISH could happen is our primary care doc has a "baseline" of how our body works while we are 100% healthy (plus a list of all the bacteria and organisms that live within us during that time), and then when we get sick, the doc can just scan us and compare against the baseline to know what has changed. But I think the sad truth is that unless you're wealthy enough to have a doctor who can earn a salary just by spending weeks or days looking at your problems and trying to find a culprit, you pretty much have to play the cards you're dealt. I can't count how many times I've been utterly disappointed by doctors basically telling me "everything looks fine so you just have to deal with the specific thing that is bothering you". Anyway hope you can get better and at least not rely on O2. [/QUOTE]
