I want to know why they can't read the x-rays or they're not skilled enough to understand x-rays please advise why is this that they seem to tell other people there's nothing wrong with them until it's too late
It's hard to respond to this comment because it's not very specific, and it seems more to reflect an underlying frustration with medicine in general. Sometimes diseases are very hard to diagnose. There can be missed diagnoses and wrong diagnoses, but most of the time it does not reflect lack of skill in interpreting imaging or reading x-rays. It's usually not that people are incompetent or not trying. Most of the time, it is because the tests we have (blood tests, x-rays, etc) aren't perfect and our understanding of these diseases is not perfect. There is a lot of research across all of medicine to make that better, but we still have a long way to go.
I can relate with that too. Yes, it is frustration , pain, disappointed. My brother had an brain abcess, with a headache as first symptom. A strong, young man. It was a bad diagnosis and bad treatment. First they said my brother had epilepsy, later it was an ACV. Both wrong. And time running. Several CT brain scan didn’t show anything wrong and he was send home. Severe headache again and cognitive deterioration. Later, a MRI showed a brain abscess, one of the Doctor said it was a malignant tumor, another one said it was just an encapsulated abcess and meanwhile my Loved brother in deterioration, to went to an emergency surgery in very bad respiratory condition and a edema he didn’t had at the very beginning. My brother passed away and I can’t stop thinking time and a correct diagnosis it would give him a very different destiny.
