Better today about the family upheaval. My boys enjoyed their Christmas. Only have to return one item, so that is pretty good. Got my artists markers, so I better get back to coloring. Darn depression. Overall happy! @Cashew what you said was perfect and what I needed to hear. Thank you!

@Cashew Thank you so much. It means a lot. :hug:

Sadness after a great Christmas time with my Father in law. My brother in law just posted family gathering pictures of their family, my stepmother, and half brother's family. My sister and I weren't invited because of the divorce between my step mom and dad. However she and I did manage to send...

@Cashew and @Junebug I guess I really couldn't agree with you more but this is what I am being told. lol I was my mom's Santa up until she died. I would sneak presents under her tree Christmas Eve for her to open Christmas day from Santa. It was my way of giving back to her.

Christmas. This will be my boys last Santa Christmas as they are 17 and 19. A little old for Santa. I will greatly miss it.

Overwhelmed. Having to call both septic people and plumbers for the backup in my basement. Getting several ideas of what could be wrong. Either way it is going to be costly. Just want to sleep.

I went to my first physical therapy appointment to help alleviate the dizziness. She assessed me. Said my neck is really, really tight. I was glad I could handle her massaging my neck. Not big on someone touching me. She listened, which was a relief after dealing with the neurologist who didn't...

My 17 year old son asked me to not post on his fb just instant message him. It kind of hurt my feelings. I guess I understand, he is 17 after all. But still. I told him so and he apologized. I raised a good boy. That helped some of the injured feelings.

Merry Christmas and Happy New year! Thank you! You've helped make my year a little easier.

Christmas. This year I am finally looking forward to it, despite my dad divorcing and my family being split into separate camps. First year since my mother died. It is a nice feeling.

Grateful that we have an opportunity to apply for a deferred loan to repair our septic system. Hopefully it will go through.

@Ironlady Yes I do. Thank you very much! They are always needed. Back at you. :hug:

@VioletButterfly Thank you very much for the support. Today I wrote a concise letter to the doctor who diagnosed me to see what he thought. I also read some negative reviews for the other doctor. Seems I am not alone. Which is sad. I am feeling much more put together today. Which is good...

Reading further reviews of the Neurologist I saw. Some were good. Most were bad. He had that same dismissive attitude as he did with me. What a jerk.

With a local merchant. On Thursday I bought a sweater online, of which I had an additional 30% off my order. Friday I received a coupon from them for an additional 20% off of sweaters. I called to get my adjustment on my previous order. Which their site says they do, and I know them to do in...

i feel stronger regarding my illness. Just because a new doc treated me as if I had a hole in my head doesn't mean I have to go with his diagnosis. I took the power back in my hands, gave him a negative review on a medical site and shared my story and I wrote a complaint to the hospital. I will...

@Cashew Yes I agree. There is a medical website where you can review doctors and I gave him a poor review and shared my experience with him. I also went to the hospital website and filed a complaint. May not get anywhere. May just be viewed as a crazy patient but at least I tried and had my say.

@Cashew I know right?! He replaces the one who diagnosed me. Which is a bummer. I really liked that one. He listened. They lost someone good.

@gizmo Thank you so much for the support. I feel like my world has been rocked. Trying to gain firm ground. I am glad you are feeling more positive!!

@Cashew That's what I think. My world has been rocked. And if you do not believe I have this condition wouldn't you at least explain it to me instead of just saying I'm cutting you off from neurology? After 10 years? Unbelievable. I feel shakey.

Being blown off by the neurologist with no explanation. Been treated for ten years for dysautonomic dysfunction. Now he says he is cutting me off from neurology because he doesn't believe my symptoms are neurologic. Does that mean he doesn't think I have dysautonomic dysfunction? Something one...

I realize that doctors don't always agree and you have to decide which one to go with.

@Lionheart777 Very sorry about your loss. My heart grieves with you. Very frustrated today. Saw the neurologist. He said my light headness and dizziness isn't neurological so he is cutting me from neurology. He was supposed to be handling my autonomic dysfunction, so now does he not believe I...

I'm grateful for the new phone I bought arriving. It is custom made. So that is triple nice. So far the messaging is working fine, which on my old phone was not! And I got a great deal. Woo hoo.

I realize after all the years of searching for a diagnosis, and then finally finding one, I have a mistrust of new doctors.
