Short Bio

I am currently being evaluated for Myasthenia Gravis. Ana positive associated with limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis. Told by rheumatologists no, but luckily one sent me for head MRI found lesion. So now on the Multiple Sclerosis path, but doesn’t really fit either as my neurologist, within first 10 minutes tells me, “I have no idea what’s wrong with you.” She unfortunately has a very similar demeanor as my first rheumatologist. That guy is a gift to the medical field. His maltreatment put me in a major depression where I did nothing for a year. With continuous new and worsening symptoms I am legit having breakdowns regularly putting all of my efforts of quitting everything under the sun, yoga, meditation, low fodmap diet (which if you have IBS or IBD or anything I highly recommend, but be prepared, mentally comitted, it’s a very restrictive process and possible diet), just trying every second of every day to be better and do better, to once again be knocked back down again. After a more recent breakdown while on the phone a nurse in my rheumatologist’s office, I feel I do not need any more specialists or doctors or emergency care, as I currently already have like 100, I want to talk to others going through this. Thank you so much if you made to the end I appreciate your time.
