not saying that your approach is wrong. not at all. i am saying that blood/urinary tests arent telling you the full picture.

keep in mind how sensitivity, specificity and pretest probability works. thats all i am saying.
once you learn clinical skills, you will notice how less you are dependent on machines. of course they are helpful tools (for verification or exclusion), but to *operate* them properly, you need to have a "pretest understanding".

its so sad to see that general/family doctors arent working properly anymore. they are not questioning protocols. do not understand complex systems. do not want to think out of the box (even when patients ask for it). and also the link to traditional roots are completely lost.
so sad ...
