Wendy, I know you wrote this letter months ago but I just had to reply. You see a just posted a letter just like yours. I'm so sorry you are going threw this. I don't have any answers for your symptoms but I sure can relate. I thought I was the only one but now it's seems there are alot of suffers. Hopefully a few doctors would read these letters. And make a cure for it all! I wish you well Wendy.
