So sad for all of with your experiences at a LC clinic.I went to Mayo in Rochester MN and had many tests and then a long visit with an integrative medicine MD. She was very helpful in explaining what is known and what is not about LC. Mayo has a very supportive 12 week after diagnosis program which is helping me learn to live with the symptoms as well as possible. The diagnosis is one that is made by ruling out other possibilities and asking many questions in regard to symptoms. As of now there is no known cure so we do the best we can like those living with heart disease or chronic back pain issues, I guess. Good luck.
