I have a question for you? I am looking all over for a dr. Because I don’t feel healthy all together. I know that I have fibromyalgia, but I don’t remember when I was diagnosed with that pretty sure it was at least 7 or eight years ago, but I’m not sure because I have memory loss. When I was 27 years old, I had an 11-year-old daughter and a two month old son and I had a hormonal brain tumor due to as I remember.
I ended up having multiple strokes on both sides of the brain. So my 11 year old had to re-teach me how to be an adult so I was a baby all over again in my 11 year old had to teach me everything that’s what I remember so being trapped in your brain is not a good feeling, so I know how it feels to be trapped in your brain so I know what it’s like to have strokes. I was legit, trapped in my mind. People were talking to me and I was trying to talk back and I couldn’t in my life basically ended, but started. My life ended as a career woman , a single mom with an 11 year old and a two month old and my life started as a 27 year old mom disabled can’t work anymore for the rest of your life with an 11 year old and a two month year old. My life has been unhealthy ever cents. They had to give me steroids to open up the blood vessels in my brain which caused deterioration of the bones which cause me to end up having hip replacements so both of my hips are replaced and I have chronic back pain to the point that now I even have a back stimulator, and that’s not even helping. I don’t want to take opiates or medical marijuana. And even when I do take them, my pain doesn’t even touch it it’s like I took a TicTac, so what’s the point in taking it? I have always had IBS of constipation and diarrhea so I have never had a normal bowel. So I also have that issue and I’ve had the gastric sleeve and I have rib pain that it’s unexplained and doctors just don’t know what to do. And I just went to my primary doctor for a well check and the doctor told me I’m sorry you’ve been dealing with this for 17 years. I don’t want to touch anything anymore you’re just going to have to go to the mayo clinic and we all know I’m never going to get in there because there is no house anymore or Doogie Howser because nobody wants to search or look into what’s going on or what diseases could be or why am I so sick or do I really have kidney disease or liver disease or what’s going on and girl we’re going to have one heck of a storm today because my kneecap just felt like it was going to shatter. I don’t know where.

Not sure where you live but my son bounced around from doctor to doctor eventually, we found Dr. Dennis Patin, MD University of Miami. He specializes in people who have nowhere else to go as no one wants to put the time in. He may not have all the solutions but he cares and working for Uni Miami they have more leeway than other specialists. Worth a try we had nowhere else to turn and we found ketamine treatment for the pain. Life changing for my son.
