How many times have you felt judged when sitting in a doctor’s chair? Oh, they are just here for pain, or- it’s all in their head, or even- I hope this year is a better one for you. I was told the last one even though nothing in my regimen has changed. How frustrating! I can’t begin to tell you how many times I’ve walked out of an office in tears and wishing I could turn back time to see how I got here. Well, unfortunately reality is you can’t, but you can definitely move forward and in a positive direction. Reaching out to the chronic illness community has helped me. You get information on doctors in the area with a proven record, you even get natural remedies you may have not had any knowledge of. While we know at this moment there is no cure, there is always comfort and hope. That never completely goes away.
