Oh Michele,
I have not posted in forever but I have been watching your posts and praying for you.
What a blessing and relief that you finally have an answer. All I can say is IT'S ABOUT FREAKIN' TIME!!!!
I am so happy for you but also so angry that it has taken so long. It is absolutely inexcusable that so many doctors overlooked this over and over again. I hope you let the particularly mean doctor who told you "you're just fat and depressed" that you do have a legitimate diagnosis now. The mean part of me wants to send him/her a cactus with a sign that says "Sit on it!" Sorry, I'm just feeling really feisty right now.
I will continue to watch for your posts and pray for you. I truly hope that this correct diagnosis will enable your doctors to give you proper and targeted treatments that get you back on the road to health and wholeness.
This Thanksgiving, I'd say this is one of the things I am grateful for. It does my heart good to see someone like you finally get a break!
Ok, back to my happy dance for Michele!!

I am so glad that the docs have finally found out what is wrong and that they can treat it. You have been suffering for a long time and not getting much support from the medical community.
You are such a strong person to go through all of this and still go to work every day. You are amazing!!
Lots of hugs sweetie,

OMG, that is too funny " The mean part of me wants to send him/her a cactus with a sign that says "Sit on it!" Sorry, I'm just feeling really feisty right now."
Thanks for all the well wishes. Not sure yet what I will do about all the crappy dr's I saw. I am just putting all my energy into getting better again!

I have been on the new medicine, Imuran and a steroid pack since Friday night and I feel relatively ok. Hungry as heck from the high dose of steroids but the imuran doesn't seem to be making me feel more ill or anything so good there!!
I seem to have a zillion dr's appts coming up in the next month or so but the ball is moving in the right direction and I am determined to feel better soon!

So glad to hear. You're on your way, Michele. You've got doctors that are supporting you. And you have all of us. I totally understand about bad doctors and not giving you the right diagnosis. But you have the right attitude. They are not worth your time even thinking about. Put all of your energy into getting better. We're all cheering for you!! Go, Michele, Go! Keep us updated as much as you're able. We love to hear about every small step and little victory along the way. They are all worth celebrating.
