The reason I wasn´t seen by anyone before remission is that my doctor diagnosed me with psychosomatic fatigue syndrome
Unfortunately, there are numerous patients who are given this diagnosis. (without any proof of psychosomatic problems other than the physical illness).

Some of them probably recover on their own, and some probably don't.

unfortunately, most diseases are not fixed with our own mind (or else we would not become ill in the first place). It only makes people feel guilty for not "trying hard enough" to recover.

I am glad that you are doing better, and hope it will last for ever.

I think it is good that you insisted on perusing this, even though you had such dramatic improvement. This way if your illness returns some day (and I hope it will not) you will know where to turn to.

I also hope that within the next few years there will be a better understanding of myasthenia and other fatigable diseases and syndromes. And better and more effective ways of treating them.
