Re: Vent (sorry!)...doc didn't run tests I asked for...why rely on an old Dx?

I realize that I did not reply to the question about relying on an old dx.

I did not get the impression that Chris was questioning the dx itself. I got the impression that she was frustrated because the dr did not order all of the tests that she wanted even though the dr stated that she would have to do research on it and get back with her.

I also got the impression that she was frustrated because the lab acted inappropriately in giving her a date for the results. Many labs now have rules against this kind of information because the phlebotomists (people who actually draw the blood) are not the techs who process the blood and actually know the procedures required.

Had Chris indicated that she did not think that she had PCOS, if her hx not indicated PCOS then certainly the test should have been preformed.

At this point, it would seem that the goal would be tx.
