I have seen this image several places online and it never ceases to crack me up. Sometimes, we really have strange things going on inside our bodies.
Usually, unlike Kermit, we ourselves know that something isnât quite right, even before the doctors know. Keep in touch with your own body so youâll know, even before the MRI.
I asked doctors for several years â PCP, gynecologist, neurologist, podiatrist â all said the now-famous refrain. âItâs too rare. You couldnât have Cushingâs.â I kept persisting in my reading, making copies of library texts even when I didnât understand them, keeping notes. I just knew that someone, somewhere would âdiscoverâ that I had Cushingâs.
Finally, someone did.
These days, thereâs no excuse to keep you from learning all you can about whatâs going on with you. There are your computer, books and the internet. Keep reading and learning all you can. You have a vested interest in whatâs going on inside, not your doctor.
