Kudos for you!
The reason for the question is why does a mild mannered person have to get so before we get some help?
I too feel I was a mild person, and when I get to the point of boiling over, I still am pretty calm..but when I lose it I feel so bad but guess what? Oh, your in pain love? WHAT THE HECK, I only been telling the medical field this for years!
So good for you, keep us posted and I wish you the very best care.
