Dr. Vertrees ran a few tests that have high false negative rates.  The test itself said that a negative does not mean the absence of the disorder, but she took it as a true negative.  She finally decided that a psychiatric evaluation was needed, which was passed.  A year later, symptoms continued to worsen, and finally, a doctor cared enough to find the answers.  Thymoma related to Myasthenia Gravis, which Dr. Vertrees discarded as psychiatric.  More than a year of suffering and frustration.  Don't go.
