You need to clear your mind, take a nice calm week or month, whatever you need. Relax. Let the answer float to the top of your head like a Magic 8 Ball. It's in there, you know it. You just think too much, you know too much. And as nice as validation from any doc would be, validating yourself would give you real peace. I think sometimes the waffling within ourselves (is it ms? is it something else? Worse?) is the stress that exacerbates the illness, puts our lives on hold, makes us feel the bars of the limbo cage more than the physicality of it. More than anything that happens to our bodies, it's what happens to our minds in all of this that hobbles us. I know it messed with my head. I will not allow that anymore. I know what I know about my health, my diseases and disorders. And the answers came to me when I let it go, and let the truth float to the top. After everything I've been through, I wonder if I'd believe anything a dr told me anyhow... so it was important for me to know what I thought, with or without a dx. I still want them to dx me. I still want them to tx me. But even if neither happens, I know I will be okay. Maybe not my body, but my mind will be.
