I agree. Drs. Will only tell you what is on your test, for what they’re looking for. You have to be your own advocate. 4 years ago I tripped and fell. Went to ER since I hit my head. The ER dr. told me, that there were no broken bones, etc. but, also told me that my brain tumor hasn’t grown?? I said what, brain tumor? I dont have a brain tumor. He pulled out notes from 2006, when I had a Ct scan for something else and it mentioned my brain tumor!!! Nobody ever told me, long story short, I had Gamma Knife done in 2004, to stop the growth of this tumor. I don’t know why they do this..I also had a MRI of my abdomen. As I was reading the test results, it mentioned that I had a cyst on my Pancreas!! The Dr. never told me. So now I have it monitored 1xyear to see if it is enlarging.

@dlc1953 I have discovered
that doctors find it easier to
treat only those things in their specialty lane. Good luck with having the cyst and tumors treated.
