After
years
of
looking
for
a
doctor
to
help
me
and
not
knowing
exactly
what
was
wrong
with
me
I
finally
found
a
good
doc
who
has
pinpointed
so
much
of
my
problems.
I
have
fibromyalgia
(15
yrs
now)
rheumatoid
arthritis,
osteoarthritis,
migraines,
restless
leg
syndrome,
bipolar
disorder,
uncontrolled
insulin
dependent
diabetes,
degenerative
disk
disease
of
the
spine
and
neck,
degenerating
hip
joints,
diabetic
neuropathy,
anxiety,
chronic
fatigue,
have
been
a
cutter
since
I
was
10
and
the
list
goes
on
but
basically
I'm
in
total
pain
24/7.
Can't
think
straight,
concentrate
or
do
anything
I
used
to
love
to
do.
Part
of
me
died
and
I'm
still
in
mourning.
I
can't
even
sit
thru
a
movie
cause
of
the
pain
and
concentration
problems.
I
was
just
diagnosed
with
the
bipolar
and
have
to
say
I'm
somewhat
releaved
to
know
what
was
wrong
now
it
explains
so
much....I've
just
started
treatment
and
it's
not
working
great
yet.
This
last
week
I
was
on
a
total
high
and
was
doing
all
kinds
of
things
which
only
made
the
pain
worse
but
I
felt
better
being
able
to
do
something
besides
sit
or
lay
down
but
then
yesterday
I
fell
off
the
high
and
went
straight
to
hell....I
joined
the
tribe
because
I've
found
I'm
not
the
only
one
that
has
the
problems
I
do
so
I
can
talk
to
someone
who
understands
and
that
for
me
never
was.
No
one
understood
and
my
dad
still
doesn't
think
depression
is
an
illness,
go
figure.
I've
finally
released
the
secrets
about
myself
and
opening
up
and
finding
a
little
relief.
I
was
blessed
the
day
I
found
this
website
it
has
been
so
good
for
me
and
I've
made
some
wonderful
friends....something
else
I
don't
have
much
of
anymore
and
no
one
that
lives
close
so
even
with
a
house
full
of
family
I've
been
so
very
lonely
and
so
grateful
I
found
people
to
talk
to
here....thank
you
to
you
all
it
brings
tears
of
joy
to
my
eyes!
