Two and a half months psyching myself up and out for an appointment with a specialist.. at last some hope! A chance to be diagnosed and finally start living my life. For the past 7 months I’ve fought not only symptoms but medical professionals, each who told me “there’s nothing wrong” “maybe it’s all in your head” “I can’t find anything wrong” “well do some more bloods” “the bloods show nothing..” but having been referred to a specialise I finally found someone who would understand and be able to help..

I’ve dragged myself along for however long since I’m the hope of this appointment giving me the answers advice and encouragement I needed to carry on, to fight this b*****d condition with all of my might and not let it get in the way of my goals.. 

only this morning my appointment was cancelled and my hopes were taken. 

I just need something.. some hope to keep me going.. some good news please :’(

    Sorry to hear that who was your appointment with? In the meantime there are things that you can do to improve like pacing and supplements.

    Many people have made improvements with doing the right things for them. My dad has made a significant improvement with anivirals and sometimes says he feel completely better. Also I think that I have been getting slowly better. Prob is our governments and the cdc have ignored our condition for many years. Our government as well as the cdc have ignored, trivialized, and suppressed our condition for many years. It is still masively underfunded and is not listed in the disabilities book.

      However funding has increased and it has gotten more media attention so there is def better recognition and hope.
