Yay finally did. What did he do? He didn't look at the ultrasounds.. didn't look at the MRI's.. How do I know? Because I had learned long ago to bring a physical copy, have the doctor pull it up, and look at the doctors behaviors when they squint with a quizzical look at the imaging.
FYI THIS IS HOW I KNOW YOU DIDN'T BOTHER LOOKING AT IT. He was supposed to be my .. well if not last hope, close to it. At least he did verify no cancerous gonads internally.. that's a good thing. However, I match every symptom of a menopausal female.. and they did visualize 'something' that looked like an ovary. Did he bother ruling that out? nope.
What he did was give me 3 potential diagnosis... and here I quote from the doc...
"Assessment/plan 1. Persistent, gradually worsening midline lower abdominal pain: Her previous MRI focused on the pelvis. I recommended she have a CT scan of the abdomen with particular attention to the abdominal wall. Presently there is no clear etiology for her discomfort. 2. Gonadal dysgenesis: I have discussed the possible original diagnoses including partial AIS, 5 alpha reductase deficiency and 17 alpha hydroxylase deficiency. We have discussed that at this point in time there is no relevance to establishing a diagnosis as it will have no impact on her health. Previous laparoscopy and blood testing shows no evidence of retained gonadal tissue which would pose a risk of malignancy.No relevance to establishing a diagnosis..no impact on health. Horrible daily cramping is no impact... osteopenia bordering on porosis, no impact.. Multiple diagnostic scans with differing diagnosis, no impact?
But one example of my frustration.. continued... with our medical 'care' for those of us that don't fit any standard template. All he did was read the assessments of previous doctors, in particular the incredibly vague and poorly assessed pelvic cystoscopy. Ignored everything else.
