Is It Possible A Simple X-ray Would Find Something New After 20 Years?
i had a misdiagnosed condition for 20 years. Have gone through surgeries .. diagnosis... and treatments... all with no results. Now a new x-ray has found something unseen all these years. Doctors thought i was crazy.... is it possible a simple x-ray would find something new after 20 years? Something unseen in surgery!

welcome to Health care magic.
If there is some thing seen in the x-ray all the time and not reported then its definitely its an error. But its first time you had x-ray all these time then there is nothing to blame. All diagnosis and surgeries can be mistaken. Because even surgery done at particular location will not able to see all over.
New findings are always possible - a new pathology / growth.
Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
