Before I was diagnosed with MS, I once had a doctor tell me that, first of all, I needed to throw away my walker and my cane and any other assistive aids I was using. Then she told me to go on a diet and get some exercise. I, on the other hand, told her that I didn’t come to this hospital for a pep talk. I came for a diagnosis. If she could not provide me with a diagnosis, I’d just find someone who could.

And so I did!

At this point I think it is very important for you to ignore the folks who want you to believe that it is all in your head. They aren’t bad people. They are probably not even all that incompetent. They are simply WRONG. Don’t let them upset you. Just continue your quest for the truth.
