Ernie, I am so sorry for your experiences. Unfortunately, they don't seem to be at all uncommon. Though I have the actual diagnoses, I'm finding a hard time finding ANYONE willing to treat. None of them seem to understand that this whole thing has MULTIPLE symptoms. I have been made fun of, put down, sent up for psych evals that all came back fine - much to THEIR surprise...talk about degrading! I feel like I'm paddling upstream without a paddle right now. I've lost my job because of it and am quite honestly very discouraged. Trying to get disability because I have both dysautonomia and fibromyalgia...and they seem to feed each other. I'm positive that I'm not the only one on this site that understands the nature of fighting for SSI! I think these folks need more than a swift kick...though I wouldn't wish it all on my worst enemy, I believe if they had to experience it for 48 hours, views of all this would be very different. I just know that I am beyond grateful to have run across this site today. Though there is no physical relief from it, the emotional release has been beyond helpful. It's been the bread crumb of reassurance that I haven't lost my mind. Thanks to all who have posted here!!!
