Whew! What a journey it has been, and it is not over. I have been through the gamut of western medicine, eastern medicine, energy healing, dietary changes, supplementation, you name it. I have tried so much.

Am I "healed?"

NO! But my quality of life is much better now than it has ever been. It has been a rocky path with its ups and downs. There is no straight path dealing with chronic illness.

While I am appreciative of my doctor; my primary care physician, and the two endocrinologists, my reality is that they were only interested in covering up the symptoms, NOT trying to get to the root cause. It was much easier to prescribe medicine for the rest of my life than to really see what was going on.

I still consult my primary care physician and get regular blood work every 6 months to monitor changes in my body. Something I highly recommend for anyone dealing with a chronic illness.

The biggest learning lesson: advocate and stand up for myself.

Friends, you have to know that I am not a doctor or a medical professional.
