Sometimes conclusive diagnoses can be very difficult to reach

Β 

Did they tell you all the tests would be free , since they could not find anything ? ha ha!

Quite a money making machine these hospitals are .Β  At 84 (actually all of us over 60 ) are all seen as MONEY walking in the door.

The good news is :Β  the meds they would have given you are often worse for you than the problem one has !Β  Β This is of course MY opinion ,Β  based on MY research into some very common health issues that come up .Β  Some of which have "Solutions" that a small percentage of doctors/experts do not agree with the mainstreet medical establishment (and thus are called quacks and get smeared, as usual)Β  .Β  (e.g. :Β  Β statins are not goodΒ  .Β  Β  high cholesterol is NOT the main cause of heart attacks .Β  Β  Β blocking acid in the stomach isΒ  actually worse for you.

and on and on .   BUT..... i am pretty sure from your posts that you might think I am crazy .😎

Β  Β Β 

Gerd has many natural (non pharmaceutical)Β  solutions which many people try, successfully .Β  Β If already on an acid blocker,Β  well.... that could be a problem.

Being a young 84 maybe you can go back to school and become a ND.Β  Β 

Next life i will do that ...............

This happens to be a private hospital funded by a charitable trust.Β  They have an excellent reputation throughout the state.Β  People often drive miles out of their way to use this hospital . Judging by the sequence of tests I am assuming they chose the ones first that were in line with the doctor's suspicions, using a process of elimination. This is the first time there I did not receive a diagnosis and the first time they have billed me...$15.64 total.Β  Medicare and Tricare covered the rest.

Now that I have modified my diet it seems to have fixed the problem.Β  We just returned from a months stay in Thailand and not once did I suffer any digestive distress.

No, I do not think you are crazy.Β  Medicine is an evolving science with new discoveries virtually every day.Β 

My girlfriend's brother is a M.D. in Bangkok.Β  He retired from one hospital and was immediately asked to join the staff of another.Β  I enjoy talking to him.Β  Besides working in research he is also an excellent diagnostic doctor.Β  I respect him because he is a free thinker, like myself, and does not hesitate to disagree with the "establishment".Β  He also thinks that statins are not good and can cause alzheimer's disease.
