Finding out that days, weeks, months, or years has gone by without you knowing the cause of your pain and suffering is unimaginable. Failure to diagnose the cause of your illness or medical condition has taken precious time away from you already, and in some cases, has taken time away from your future. Failure to diagnose simply means that someone has symptoms of some illness or medical condition that has gone unnamed, unclassified, and more often than not, untreated. Sometimes, though undiagnosed, symptoms will be alleviated with different forms of treatment or medication. By treating the symptoms and not the cause of the symptoms the real problem is being masked, you take unnecessary amounts of medication, and you could even be taking the wrong medication causing more harm than good in the long term.

There are many reasons why failure to diagnose happens.
  • Medical professionals do not listen to the patient, or write their symptoms off as being “all in your head.”

  • Medical professionals do not recognize the symptoms.

  • Medical professionals misinterpret the symptoms attributing them to something else, such as a side effect of a medication the patient is on.

  • Medical professionals do not perform necessary tests.

  • Medical professionals misread lab results.

  • The real medical problem may be highly unusual or not appropriate for the patient because of age, race, gender, etc. so the medical professional does not even consider it.

  • The real medical problem may be so rare that the medical professional does not know much or anything about it.
