It's funny if that's the right word: While doctors don't like to commit
themselves, what they are really thinking comes out incidentally and
probably without their realizing it. Example: "Vasculitis" was always on
the list of possibilities, along with tumor, stroke, arterial/venous
malformation, etc. But just yesterday in passing, the doctor said a
particular symptom was probably due to a vasculitis.  So I suspect he
really is much closer to the truth of it than he lets on. Is it something
they learn at med school? Or on doctors' bulletin boards? Anyway, thanks
for your posts to all and sundry--they are very helpful in many ways.
