Unveiling the Medical Mystery Diagnosis
It is frustrating when you go to a medical facility and after several tests and diagnoses; the medical doctor seems not to tell you what exactly you are suffering from. You feel hopeless because, from deep down your heart, you know your body is hurting and this means that you are sick. But from what you are suffering from, nobody can tell, even the most qualified doctor. It is just a mystery. This is what we term as medical mystery diagnosis.
But incase you find yourself in such a situation, don’t panic, just make your mind relax. It is good to understand that, in this world we live in, there are those diseases which crop every day and there is no specific diagnosis which has been done on them. You might be the first patient suffering from that particular symptom, so it will take time for a medical doctor to put a name to what you are suffering from. Also, not all symptoms have a diagnosis. Take it that yours is among those that cannot be diagnosed and take whatever advice the medical doctor gives to you.
