When my husband had medical problems that baffled all the doctors, I took to the web. After hours of research I stumbled on "In need of diagnosis". The other members gave many suggestions and lots of support. It was bittersweet to join this community and realize that modern medicine was good at treating symptoms, but not at diagnosing the out of the ordinary diseases. Luckily for us we finally got a correct diagnosis at John Hopkins in Baltimore. My sanity was saved by this board. Thanks again.
