May I just ask Dr Lapidus, what exactly is meant by your reply of "One
has to wonder why an 18 year old girl has so many medical conditions"?
If you are referring to what it says in my signature, not all of those
medical conditions are related to gynecological issues. I happen to
suffer from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and several other conditions
because of it.

Not a doctor, just a girl who's very interested in medicine,
and has many medical conditions.
