I have been completely transparent with my doctors from reports, images, pictures and videos to explain all my symptoms. I have more findings and I have been asking for biopsies or gold standard testing for particular things and had been dismissed. I’m extremely exhausted and sick. My symptoms started 11 months ago and now are worse; abdominal pain, bone pain (new spots in bone scan dismissed), shortness of breath, stiffness, heart rate with pain (new thickening of the mitral valve prolapse), light color period, low iron, new cyst on my spine neura foramina (PET scan uptake there), blood spots on skin, bladder retention, chronic inflammatory changes on bladder biopsy on a hypervascular spot, edema lymphic aggreggates on colon biopsy, new cysts on both ovaries (in lil time difference), involuntary movements, headaches, nausea, vomiting, weakness, feel I’m going to pass out, pale, yellow and gray lips. I just want to able to breath, eat, use restroom and walk normally. ❤️‍🩹🦓

@lidiana You seem to have 2 questions/problems here: the need for life documents and your health. I think the other members have given good advice on Living Wills and DNR orders.
The bigger question seems to be changes in your health. It’s can be frequent, and not unusual, for doctors to “dismiss” female patients. That happened to me and made the time getting a diagnosis much longer. You might want to find a comprehensive medical center near you and see i you can get help there. You might also keep a journal of your symptoms: frequency, intensity, major changes, what makes them better or worse. Being sick is very difficult. You need to learn how to advocate for yourself.
Is there anyone who could come and help you organize?
