When do you not ignore?

I’ve found that doctors will be happy to send me/my partner for expensive tests ‘just in case’. To me, these aren’t things to worry about, but to my partner, it means he has the *worst possible outcome* whatever that is.

Ex, a simple planters wart. Dr removes, says they are 99% sure it’s a wart but just in case, let’s send for a biopsy. To my partner this equals ‘the doctor is concerned, they ordered a biopsy and it is probably cancer!’

Now take this example and repeat it over and over. [/quote]

I can top this. Acquaintance got treated for rabies because the “dogs running around” in the developing country he visited “looked bad.”  He hadn’t even touched one, let alone received a bite. He has a concierge doctor who humors this stuff from him. [/quote]

Lol. Yeah, we spent three years dealing with "pancreatic cancer" that was undetectable to every medical professional from DC to Boston. Those losers at Hopkins had no idea what they were dealing with! The humouring was pretty unreal in terms of procedures lacking diagnostic criteria. [/quote]
