What a tough road for you. I’m so sorry you are going through all of this!

Your journey is a difficult one and is causing emotional as well as physical pain. I’m sorry that you are struggling so. I had a difficult undiagnosed health concern for 18 very long months a decade ago. It’s traumatic.

I was able to keep going until I found a doc who “got me”. He was an infectious disease doc who talked to me the way TV’s Dr. House would … and he figured I had a neutral toxin from fish feeding off dying coral reefs! The point is… you need to find the doc who can sit with you and figure it out and not dismiss you for three more months.

Are you near or can you get to a Mayo or Cleveland Clinic ? A John’s Hopkins or Brigham and Woman’s or any of these well known research centers? Or, if not, maybe changing your local doctor (s) may be a chance for a fresh look at your profile.

The state of our health system is fragile right now after 3 years of a pandemic and I know it’s difficult to get appointments but as you have to wait 3 mos. For your doc maybe there is another opportunity for you.

I’m sorry to hear that you are waiting in pain and feeling demoralized; I get it … but it’s Time to get proactive. I’m rooting for you 🙏🌸🙏
