Learn the origins of how the old saying "Look for horses, not zebras." became a common principle taught in medical schools.
Unfortunately, this principle has not been helpful to those of us in the carcinoid community who have been left far too long undiagnosed because Carcinoid seems as rare as finding zebras.
