Hello Shell,
I feel for you in your situation. I don't have great words of wisdom to
offer you, but I did say a prayer for you. God Bless You, and I truly,
truly hope your life gets back on track and that you find a doctor that
will diagnose and treat you. Here is a cyber hug.....
Take care,
Shawna J
