Fundies and Somatic Symptoms

Her siblings are all really normal and articulate. I don't see any evidence at all that there was abuse going on here. Starting to make me really quite furious.

Someone can be diagnosed with more than one chronic condition, even if some of the symptoms are similar. It can be important to diagnosis each condition because the treatments might be different and often there will be complications and organ involvement that will apply to one condition but not another you will want to be on the look out for.

I understand if you trust your doctor, but if you feel you aren't getting answers that make sense or are being brushed off, find another doctor.

Yes, yes, yes. It sounds like you might have inner ear damage or another neurological condition. Be careful, those were some of my first symptoms. Get it checked out before it progresses and gets worse, or you could end up like me. I always tell people, get at least three opinions. If what a doctor is telling you doesn't feel right, get out of that office and into a new one! Your health is too important to spare.

I saw a hearing specialist, a neurologist and an allergist. They found nothing. I really trust my doctor because, he had not say "You have somatic trouble. Go to see a psychiatrist and good bye.", he said "You have somatic trouble. I want you to see a true psychiatrist, in a hospital. I want also that you see another neurologist, and having new glass. You will take another medication and we'll see every week - you can call me on my phone. If you want to stop to work, you can." He was really cconcerned, so I will trust him (also I don't like to see doctors.) I understand what you say and I thank you for this, but doctor and me... Urg. I'll wait to see the psychiatrist. :)
