Hi, I'm new here. I'm 35. Been having symptoms for years. Just recently went to the doctor because only recently did my symptoms start to scare rather than annoy me. I have a feeling I'm about to start living in the doctor world. No diagnosis yet. Went to the family doctor. She ordered a ton of blood work, EKG and an echocardiogram. Evidently, I have a heart valve thing that she found already, but that's not all. Referrals to Neuro and GI are pending. I've been getting migraines since I was 12 and have a family history of MS, Lupus and Rheumatoid Arthritis, so we'll see what all it turns out be. I've been called back in to "discuss" my bloodwork results and echo results on Wednesday. Can't say I'm looking forward to that. And as I'm sitting here typing, my right arm is going numb. Yay. I'm scared, bottom line, of whatever this is. I do get some comfort from reading ya'lls posts, so thank you.
