Can't get a definitive diagnosis

@migizii I understand well. Some of my own family is afraid of knowing about their own body, mind and spirit. At least that is why they do not get themselves analyzed. And they certainly don't give a D about my issues. I suspect they think they might have the fathers and mothers they think they have. Oh, well. Everyone has the most basic right, that of celebrating their own naivete.

I have the full diagnosis of MCTD, yet the basics are the same for all of the overlapping conditions. I adapt diet )non processed, low sugar and avoid inflammatory foods) and lifestyle (movement like walking, PT) and it works well with the meds. 25 years with this, and spending time on finding the full reasons is a rabbit hole. I do know that I have this as my mom had rickets as a child, RA in adulthood. It is enough, for me. I have specialists who mind the various symptoms. I do a fair amount of planning to deal with health and readily say no to anything that is too much. I don't try to convince anyone of anything anymore.

Perhaps a short lesson in basic biology and genes!
