 Trashcan diagnosis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A medical or psychiatric diagnosis which seems to overgeneralise to a wide variety of complaints and symptoms, is often known as a trashcan diagnosis, and is often is given when there's obviously something wrong but the doctor doesn't know what it is.
Some trashcan diagnoses such as schizophrenia have become more narrowly defined and are now used to refer to specific problems.
Some trashcan diagnoses have valid applications but are simply being used too broadly; examples would be ADHD and Autism.

 Tamara Liller-Our FM/CFS World
Stereotypes of fibromyalgia as a “trashcan” diagnosis, a trendy disease, or a malingerer’s disease hurt patient morale and undermine the legitimacy of the medical condition.
It was disheartening to think that success in finding a diagnosis and treatment for fibromyalgia depended a great deal on where one happened to live, which medical professional he or she consulted, and so on.
During all those years that I had searched for a diagnosis, the muscles in my neck and upper back had become severely atrophied, my musculoskeletal system had become very weak, and my posture and equilibrium were so poor that I could only stand for short periods (and then usually by hanging onto something or someone).

 Is this MS or could it reasonably be something else?
I know this sounds like a trashcan diagnosis, but it really could be a migraine.
The diagnosis of MS needs symptoms that wax and wane with periods of recovery to near or at baseline (hence the name multiple).
So, it is impossible to tell you if you have MS, but the CT scan being negative is a sign that MS is not the problem.

All that came to an abrupt end after she hit her knee on a trashcan at age 41.
Diagnosis is difficult, says Schwartz, because many symptoms of RSD are similar to those of other more common illnesses such as chronic pain, rheumatic disease, multiple sclerosis and fibromyalgia.
Primary clues are pain disproportionate to the injury and nerve dysfunction in the affected area.

Bush should immediately be given the advantage of a considered professional diagnosis, and started on drugs that offer the possibility of retarding the slow but inexorable course of the disease.
This seems a more likely cause of this dementia than alzheimers, since the early-onset type of alzheimers has a strong tendency to run in families, and is very rare to occur when no one else in the family has the disorder.
President Bush's "mangled" words are a demonstration of what physicians call "confabulation," and are almost specific to the diagnosis of a true dementia.

My last pain management doctor claims that FMS doesn't exist, that it's a "trashcan diagnosis for a doctor who can't figure out what's wrong with you." Meanwhile, in the past year, besides daily back pain, I've been diagnosed with migraines, IBS, and Raynauds.
The Intake Nurse was quite surprised that no one has prescribed me an antidepressant and that would be something they would do right away for the neural processing of my brain.
I spoke with the Intake Nurse who has FMS and was both sympathetic and supportive of the run around I've had with my doctors.

“If we could develop efficient methods that would allow amnion-derived cells to differentiate into specific cell types, then placentas would no longer be relegated to the trashcan.
And according to the results of their studies, these so-called amniotic epithelial cells could in fact be directed to form liver, pancreas, heart, and nerve cells under the right laboratory conditions.
Instead, we’d have a useful source of cells for transplantation and regenerative medicine,” said senior author Stephen C. Strom, associate professor of pathology in the Pitt School of Medicine and a researcher in the University’s McGowan Institute for Regenerative Medicine.
