Just to try and make you feel alittle better (i know that's hard), I have had this for over 5 yrs. took me 3 to figure out what I have. In that period of time, saw 12 (yes 12)dermatologists, 4 infectious disease doctors and 4 gp's. Out of all those I have ONE that will give me the prescriptions I think I need (which is ridiculous, since I have NO medical backgroud).
I will not go into how poorly I was treated....but the point is, do NOT get discouraged. Don't let the ignorant, self serving and closed minded medical population stop you from trying to get better. I am much better than what I was and I do see a light at the end of the tunnel. For those of you that have had this less than 2 or 3 yrs, you have a VERY good chance of getting better without too much discomfort. For those of you that have had this longer, it IS a process. I highly reccomend you go back and look at the herxheimer responses Pamela Mae wrote about in the begining. they are very real and can last awhile.
Hope this helps somebody. |
