Hi Marley, I do not have a doctor at the Mayo, I live in Santa Barbara, Calif.
My doctors are with the Sansum Clinic.
In talking about my situation as a child I was sharing my belief that the “growing pains” I suffered from most likely begin during and because of how I grew up. Children living under stress do suffer many different problems both physically and mentally . We humans are adaptive and can have good lives and become healthy with the proper care. I believe I am a survivor who has had a very good adult life but have physical challenges that were probably started very young. I don’t know if this answers any questions you might have, I hope so.
Have a beautiful day.
Jilly
