Dear Jean,
Yes, I learned as welll that MOntel was misdiagnosed. YOu know what Barb
was misdiagnosed for one year, with severe and constant coughing until I
had to take her to emergency, her both jugulars were clotted, her
superior vena cava and vena cava were clotted. The docs did not espect
her to come out of the hospital as these were side effects to the cancer
which they could never diagnose. I learned later that constant coughing
may be a sympton to cancer. Ironic, that a basic symptom that doctors
overlook.
Thanks for information, in Montels case he was misdiagnosed but was
luck. There are those who were and are not so fortunate.
God Bless
