Thanks as always Becky, I'm just fearful with my upcoming consultation given the previous experiences I've had. I just hope that this will be different, fingers crossed.

@change25 I’m sure that you are worried. That’s why I put this list on here that will give you an idea of questions. Question Prompt List:
https://autoimmune.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Question-Prompt-List-Autoimmune-Association-English. You certainly won’t need all the questions! Maybe you could formulate one from each heading. Also, come up with a very concise timeline of what has happened. And how long you’ve been looking for help! (Don’t talk bad about any doctor or hospital!). And maybe take your dad with you, tell him he should take notes and ask questions he feels are pertinent. In reality, his presence will help both you and the doctor stay on topic. And the doctor will be more likely to take you seriously.
What else can you do so the doctor will listen and take you seriously?
