Do i have Rheumatic fever or not. Conflicting Doctor diagnosis
Posted , 4 users are following.
I went to the doctor because i had sore knees and elbows after my hernia surgery ( i was innactive for 6 weeks ) & they made me get an ecg (completely normal) and have my blood test for Group A strep which came back positive and the doctor said i had rheumatic fever and put me on anti-biotics. I then went to get a second opinion and the doctor said he doesnt think i have rheumatic fever after a short evaluation and sent me to a cardioloogist. The cardiologist said he doesnt think i have Rheumatic fever either and did a ecg which came back normal. I then went to get a 3rd opinion and the doctor said i do not have it either all though she didnt do any checks just heard my symptoms and listened to my heart. What should i do? The doctor said i had athralgia and the blood test came back with strep, who should i listen too?? pleas help
