Family practice : Find a dr whom you trust and work with him/her. They will want the best for you. Relax and be happy. All those diagnoses are closely related. Sometimes it is hard to differentiate them.

Wrong Diagnosis: Wrong diagnosis is caused by partial or wrong information. A doctor is like a car mechanic or repairman when trying to figure out the problem. If you don't tell the doctor exactly what you have been experiencing, then the doctor will give you the wrong diagnosis (and the wrong treatment). Try to be as accurate and complete as possible next time. Don't give up.
