[QUOTE="Sam50, post: 1747795, member: 419035"] oh my gosh missing appendicitis is awful :eek: that could have been dire consequences for you. Although Hubby and I have thought that the viral type illness could well have been Hepatitis A, I'm not sure that leaves residual nerve pain ? (as I'm not a doctor) and ever since I learnt that some people have shingles without the rash (even harder to diagnose) I haven't been convinced by the doctor saying it wasn't. Not everyone has illness by the textbook ! Hubby's GP although a very pleasant chap doesn't fill me with confidence. He was also our neighbour's GP and she had gallstones. He reassuringly told her that the NHS policy for this was 'watchful monitoring' (or maybe that was passive ignoring) two years down the line she had a nasty gall bladder infection. She was rushed into hospital where they found the gallbladder had turned cancerous and she died a few months later. Which is why I always question everything. Doctors are only human after all.:) [/QUOTE]
