CT scans are not used to diagnose GERD!

In most cases, it's a clinical diagnosis.

But from the stories we've been spoon-fed by the media, Obama went in for a sore throat.

Again you would never CT scan someone for a "sore throat".

UNLESS, as the stories are telling us, Obama had a fiberoptic look-see first.

Again, that is not standard of care for a "sore throat".

Really have any of you been scoped when you said you had a sore throat?

The scope showed something strange, so the doctors are looking for a serious cause.

And FGS, they wouldn't be CT scanning the area for a benign condition.

I hope it's nothing, but the press is really pissing me off about this.

Go find the world's stupidest doctor and ask him if a CT scan is EVER used for a benign sore throat?

What about HPV. Depending on *what* you’ve had in your mouth - HPV would be the first thing they’d look for.

I'm no medic but your comments are right on with my thoughts.

I have only had one CAT scan. It was for a kidney stone. I have had numerous sore throats and never had a scan for one.

I guess it's more of his transparency./s

We will have to wait and see.

I had a "squeeky voice" a while back.....the doc took a fiberoptic look at the voice box and found no abnormalities....put me on anti acid reflux pills but after a month made no difference....2 months later the symptom went away of its own accord.
