You read it wrong...

it IS a trash can diagnosis but not that a problem doesn't exist... the problem is with the doctor not giving a complete dx, not discovering what is truly going on and giving a specific dx. The problem isn't the patient, as they have a legitimate dx and the dr goes with NOS? It's a trash can dx because imo doctors don't know enough or take enough time to do it right. Patients deserve a proper dx for their symptoms! Something with NOS attached still gives the patient anxiety about "closure" on what they are battling. I don't think it's fair to those who suffer for a doctor to use this term.
