I watched a ton of these yesterday, I almost didn't sleep because I kept overthinking about diseases and stuff. And after I finally fell asleep I woke up in the middle of the night sweating even though I had taken off all the extra clothing I was wearing before, it took me some more time to sleep again and I was extremely tired in the morning. I literally couldn't stop thinking about diseases, whenever I tried to think of something else my brain would just shove the topic away and go back to diseases.

Lol. Do you think everything she said to the doctors at that tine made it into the film? This need to have every detail explained and neatly wrapped up in by the end of a film is what the rest of us in the west ( ireland and the UK anyway) notice about the Anerican audience. We even change film endings to suit them. Lol. Couldn't you think of an explanation yourselves instead of thinking it' s a flaw in the film? The logical answer to why it was not mentioned again might be because it had nothing to do with the diagnosis. And if was something to do with it, it doesn't actually matter because it's not needed for the story. Lads, leave something to the imagination!

For 7 years I got super bad pain in my abdomen, for 3 of those years I kept telling my doctors what I thought it might be, no one would check me for it, what I thought I had is super common, 1 in every10 women have it, that disease is endometriosis. Finally last year I found a doctor that sent me straight to surgery after 1 appointment, 2 weeks after the appointment I had my laparoscopy to get diagnosed and it was a birth defect that hung from my uterus, after the surgery all my pain went away... I will never forgive the doctors that ignored my pain and thought i was weak, I missed out weeks from school and work and was stuck in bed more times than I remember and no one did anything, this also happens for most women with endometriosis, doctors say it's normal period pain even thought its the entire month

i love how in the second case she complains that the didnt do many tests before... like duh why would they do something like an MRI scan when your pregnant

Feeling blessed after having a look at my body💛

i can't help but feel sorry for scott in the first part.. she throws her marriage/relationship then when she gets her diagnosis and is happy again she goes and marry someone after a month? the pain and suffering she went through seems all worth while lol

[@geniemeadows5122]

@Natasha Merline...if we stopped to think of the disasters that could happen, we would not want to get out of bed ha. Being a born again christian I cling to Psalm 91 verse 3 especially. At times I thought my time was up I would pray and there have been many over the years. You have to be a committed believer to get results though. Other times God brings fiery trials to test us.

The pregnant woman who had a growth on her nerve was quite fat and didn't look healthy at all.

[@ritikasaini2736]

I thought that the woman in the 1st case can have gangrene cuz she had a a bite before and then it started spreading in her legs. I have heard many cases about it and I have even studied about it. And if treated earlier, it can be treated without cutting the legs but late treatment can lead to cutting the legs.

[@trishwade8402]

Here, in Australia, most conditions can be correctly diagnosed at any of the large hospitals. They have masses of diagnostic equipment and services readily available.

[@lellyt2372]

That's great, except the doctor has to have SOME idea of what to look for. There isn't one "test to rule them all" ! The vast majority of tests are relatively specific and if they perform one to test for 7 markers and you actually have marker no. 8 it won't find it. Medicine is a science with a large element of detective work and I bet you could film a show in Australia like this, just like you could in America or England or Ireland or anywhere that has large hospitals with an abundance of diagnostic techniques and equipment

[@bendietrees]

Oh sure. I've see multiple endocrinologists both public and private here in Australia and they are all happy with my numbers (I have hashimotos thyroiditis) but have no answers for me when I tell them I still have symptoms except for " see a counselor". Stop romanticizing Australian healthcare.

[@darkallegiance666]

I’m happy you specified “most” conditions, because I’m Australian, have been (& still go) to large hospitals & Specialist clinics & despite numerous (to say the least) tests of various sorts, have been waiting for a concrete diagnosis for over 20 years. Auto-Immune diseases are not so easy to diagnose in Australia as you seem to believe, dearie.

[@nothingbutwahala]

Is this the American healthcare system that makes a doctor not run an MRI (because pregnant) or CT scan of the head immediately when somebody come with numbness on one side?

[@nothingbutwahala]

This is really disturbing. I am not saying that the way we do it in Switzerland (run a CT scan for really many things) is perfect but her first symptom cried for imaging of the brain, still nobody did it for months!? Is this story true? I somehow cannot believe it. And if it's true. Wow! Just wow!

[@maddytunbridge4798]

It is so frustrating in this day and age to see doctor after doctor not know what to do with people. Its happened multiple times in my own family and friends families to the point where Ive had to read a medical book on Down Syndrome so i can diagnose my son before we see a doctor so i can tell them what we need for him. Ive done it for myself. I go in and tell them whats wrong and what we should do about it. We just need doctors and paediatricians to write scripts. Its that bad.

[@Efhgi]

That's really sad I'm In Australia if my doctor doesn't know what's wrong she says I'm not sure what's going on but km going to speak to this specialist and see what they think. She always finds an answer though.

[@EM.1]

If the symptoms are only on one side of the body usually it’s something that’s connected with the neurological system: the brain needs to be checked.
