Please if you don’t remember anything else, remember God! This and only this will keep you with your peace. This Autoimmune Nightmare is real. Many many years of suffering as I have, I’m certain has been cause for my severe depression. Because in most cases, you don’t “look sick”, it’s quickly determined that it must be in your head. That some “childhood trauma” conclusively causes the horrible pain in your body. When I tell you that I’ve heard it all. I have experienced all the humiliation felt in these comments and desperation stories. Does it help talking about it? Trying to figure that one out because it’s pretty taxing on me to sit and write this. There is too much to tell. I pray for you, because after 22 years, additional “stuff” has found its way to my body and is still some, definitively undiagnosed. Osteoarthritis; Fibromyalgia; Sarcoidosis; Systemic Sclerosis and now, through my own research and pure hellish suffering, I believe Dercums, I’m at my wits end. If I make it I will turn 68 on Nov 11th and feel like it’s gonna be my 88th No desire, no energy, little hope. Keep getting up is my advice, if any. Keep getting up. It’s been 22 years of nothing but doctors, specialists and despair. I’m so sorry for you and I pray that yours will not end here, Blessings.
