I sat down and cried last night. I cried because after 3 years of research and endless reading and work, I finally have a doctor who is willing to back me in my belief of what is wrong with me. She told me YES! yes we will do these tests, I think you are on to something…this is the first time that I have ever had a doctor stand behind me 100%...to use all of her knowledge and be OPEN-MINDED….she is willing to question things, to set her PRIDE aside, to take the TIME to LISTEN to me and to not belittle my knowledge in what I have researched in my struggle with my SJS and the water poisoning…she believes I may be on to what actually is causing me to yet again stop my dancing, my hiking, my everyday freedoms, the things that bring me JOY. Even if it doesn’t pan out, well, maybe I will have taught her something which may help someone else…there’s got to be something good in all this, isn’t there?
It feels good to not be alone in this anymore, but I still have the FEAR that perhaps she may bail out on me, ..everyone else has so far.
my greatest difficult challenge I must entertain daily in my life would positively benefit and be an inspiration to mankind (read all 11 entries…)

How Wonderful
I don’t completely follow your train of thought on all the details of this but I do get and celebrate that you found a doctor who will listen and believe in you and actually respect your opinion.
That is so wonderful. To have our presence held and respected by another human being who is also willing to help, that is so precious. I am so glad for you.
I have searched for just such a doctor for years and have experienced that pain the doctors I talk to not really getting my position and sometimes even ignoring it.
The doctor I have now is new to me. She is an Naturopath and I like her a lot because she seems honor my opinion. But most of all I like that she has no arrogance about her.
