well....never in my life did i think that I would be watching videos like this..

I still have to go for a scan and more appointments but the doctors feel pretty confident that I will be back to normal in the next few weeks. its taken this long because its better to not try to guess at treatment so that other symptoms or clues dont get covered up.
If all I have to do out of this is change my diet (though substantial fo those that know me well) I will gladly deal with that. maybe take a few pill and eat differently...thats fine.
I cant help wonder in all this...what if I was not in the UK? if I was still in florida where we had little or no health insurance, what would I do? would I have put off treatment and just waited to feel better? to tough it out?...probably.
and how many of my friends are dealing with things like that? not affording insurance or putting things off till they have insurance or money for treatment??
this worries me because I know, like me, they probably would never say much to anyone about how they are feeling.

i am so sorry to hear you have been feeling so icky! i hope you figure everything out really soon & start feeling better. i totally understand the frustrations in knowing somthing is wrong w/you but not knowing what! i went throught that about 12 - 13 years ago. i knew somthing was wrong with me but the drs kept saying i was fine **whatever you know your own body** eventually they figured it out but only because jenny happended to stumble across a TV show about a girl w/many of my same symptoms & after much research & tons of test they told me i did infact have a problem, i have PCOS, its basically a pain in the rear! =) but hey life goes on, it could be worse, guess we all have some sort of "thorn in the flesh"! & as far as talking to phil & letting him know all the "joy o joys" he has missed.... i wanna be in on that conversation! =) **can't wait to see him again, & his chapped lips** ;-) keep us poseted on how things are going & please tell the family hello. love ya.
Thanks Em, I needed that smile.
Love ya
