My sympathy for your suffering yet happy to see u have the strength and presence of mind to not give up. as much as some oppose for lack of understanding it, have u considered alternative medicine? there are good and bad in allopathic as well as homeopathic/naturopathic doctors so we must seek out the best ones. I use both but mainly have had the best luck w my regular alternative treatments doctor who has been at it for more than 40 years. He ALONE has brought me back from what were told me on 2 separate occasions by the typical med doctors , were illnesses that had me near death in their own words yet they were at a loss to treat me. Was this knowledgable man in the North East US that got me over these illnesses so do not discount please methods of diagnosis and treatments that have often been used for over 1000 years in some other countries as well as r soo many new developments. I think u have certainly suffered enough and should try any means u can with an open mind so that u will be brought back into comfort and live your life as u wish. cheers.
