Dear Verna:

I feel so bad for you. I have gone through the same thing. The doctors ask how do you get along with your husband? are you stressed out? etc. all of the many years I had abdominal pain (which yrs later turned out to be chronic appendicitis) the doctors would say, what do you want me to do about it, when I would tell them I was still in pain. One doctor asked me how the holidays were, I said okay despite the fact that I was vomiting and in pain. He said, I knew you would say that.

As you can see, those comments never lose their "sting". I would like to write to each and every one of those doctors and say, hey guess what, I really had something wrong with me!

I don't know what to say to make you feel better. I can only say that I understand and feel for you. I am lucky enough to have found a wonderful PCP who believes me and is very concerned to help me find relief. I hope you can find the same kind of doctor.

Take care, and please don't give up!
