Example Scenario
When I was ten, I wasn’t feeling well and had pain in my joints for a few weeks. My mom thought I might have juvenile arthritis, so she made an appointment with my pediatrician. My doctor ordered blood work and sent me to radiology for x-rays. He said that my x-rays were normal and my arthralgia was not related to arthritis. He gave me a diagnosis of anemia due to having low hemoglobin and erythrocytes. He was also concerned that I might have diabetes because my blood tests showed hyperglycemia. Due to these lab results, he referred me to an endocrinologist to make sure my glands were functioning appropriately. He also referred me to a hematologist to look more closely at my blood tests. The endocrinologist said my blood sugar was fine in a repeat test. He also told me my thyroid was working properly and wrote on the paperwork “euthyroid.” The hematologist ran more tests and said my leukocytes were high. He asked the pathologist to look at the shape of my cells under the microscope to rule out leukemia. The pathologist couldn’t find anything abnormal. I went back to my pediatrician after seeing all these specialists and he said based on the test results, he thinks I had a virus and that my prognosis was good. He was confident I’d be back to normal in a few weeks! He was right and my mom felt bad that I had to see all those doctors, so she took me out for ice cream.
