But even outside of my situation, I think every dx in the absence of blood tests, MRI's, or what have you, can be questioned. How is the dx made? Based on a mixture of self-report and clinical observation. Now, both are subjective.
Just for the sake of completeness... the book "The Wheat Belly" suggests that diet modifications erase the dx of diabetes, which IS made using a blood test. If that is true indeed, even a dx made by objective means can be removed. Do not know if it is true - just reporting what I have read in the book.
