So I have one more speech to give... thank god its the last! Its a persuasive speech, so I'm going with something along the lines that Doctors need to believe in "invisible disorders".., or something along those lines...

I have to do it on the 15th, so I'll be using the answers that are posted through like the 13th.... and everything will be anonymous

I have a few more questions if you all wouldn't be sooooooo kindly to answer so I can make some statistics/charts... all that fun stuff! Thanks guys!!!!
(o ya, last speech, i left out that I had rsd till I was done and answering questions... they were all like and i ended up spending just as much time giving them answers to questions as I did in my speech)



1. How long did it take to get a dx? how many docs?

2. have you ever been denied treatment?

3. Been told its in your head/making it up... etc? by family, friends or doctors?

4. Been called a drug seeker/addict?

5. Not been believed at the ER?
-left the ER in more pain then when you arrived?

6. Felt you were alone at least once since getting the dx?
