I have always wondered why there isn't a medical specialty that is just diagnosing things that other doctors cannot figure out. But I did find something recently that is good to know. It is called "crowd med". It is a website / company that allows you to submit your record and symptoms and let a team of doctors and regular people work on the diagnosis for you over the net. They also put the results of others so you read those if you have something similar.

Actually if this is something that appeals to you... you can sign up to be a "medical investigator" and you can get paid.

I found it because it was listed on a crowdfunding website for investors and I almost invested but I wasn't sure how I would see my funds come back to me.

Right now the internet is in bad shape because of old / outdated data but I am hopeful that the future of medicine sees that the internet can be helpful. I find photos on google to be super helpful. If you get 100 pictures of melanoma and your thing doesn't look like melanoma.. you can get calm. Of course still check it out but it is helpful.

I expect doctors to do their best. But the truth is.. I rarely have found any doctor that tried at all or that was competent. Given that this is someone's life in the balance, I don't want to hear "they are only human". They hold themselves out to have something that regular people don't have and get paid accordingly. So when they produce poor results they should be held to account.
