I've been waiting over 8 months to find out the source of my pain and other symptoms. I've gone through a lot of tests, procedures, etc. and still wonder if they're missing something important--hard not to when you're sitting in waiting rooms and waiting for test results and appointments all the time. I'm beginning, at this point, to wonder if one of the Dr.'s I've seen wasn't right when he said it was all in my head--even though my gut and my symptoms tell me otherwise. I can't imagine what it must be like for the women who's stories I've read on this site, and others, who have been going through it for years--and much worse problems than I have--or how they've managed to not loose it all together or simply give up. Good luck to you in finding answers--to all your questions. Sincerely.
-- aimee
