I told my doctors over and over that something was not right, that exercise could not fix it, and that throwing more pills at me was not going to make it better. After having my doctor tell me that sensory issues are "mumbo jumbo" (yes, his words exactly), I tried one more doc. One appt. and he figured it out. I hope you're able to find a doc that works for you! I'll be praying for you:)Ritabophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12040830422286890670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118514403475594574.post-80038508372767890582009-11-02T11:45:36.398-06:002009-11-02T11:45:36.398-06:00too true.. literally have to fight to be heard or ...too true.. literally have to fight to be heard or taken seriously. My mom is doing that for my kiddo in college. she is battling her weight and it turns out since she hit puberty that something is not right. she diets exercises etc and still gains. and they always say thyroid. <br />She finally got a doc who caught something on a test, started a treatment and then had to leave practice cus of pay or something ( college kids with disabled parents dont have options for great insurance plans...) but shite, I have medicare and look at how great that is...cctexan3https://www.blogger.com/profile/04571939672199034096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-118514403475594574.post-65117705282225950592009-10-29T17:09:48.358-05:002009-10-29T17:09:48.358-05:00Oh I am so sorry you are having this problem. Jus...Oh I am so sorry you are having this problem. Just when you need them the most you feel abandoned. I am glad you have somewhat of an advocate with your ins. co. <br /><br />My daughter had health problems two years ago and I don't know what she would have done if I hadn't been there to push, ask questions, yell (yep, I yelled at her surgeon).<br /><br />I would recommend you getting an advocate in a family member or a friend. It's not easy being agressive when you are the one sick. Let someone else do it for you! <br /><br />I'll be praying for you!Mia Sophiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13440275781950230206noreply@blogger.com
