7 years is a long time to be in pain 🙁 When I first started flaring up, everyone thought I was depressed. No one believed me that I was sick. It was terrible and I can totally relate to what you are going through. I've mentioned this before on this thread, and chances are, you've tried it. Have you ever done an elimination diet? When I avoid gluten, 90% of my symptoms go away. I've heard that gluten and dairy can trigger an autoimmune response. If you haven't already, try going gluten-free. Let me know if it helps!
