I've been reading here for years, and had another username (I lost access to the password, and the email account, so I am back now under another username).
I'm in the middle of a diagnostic process, that, if it goes the way it seems, may lead to either a terminal diagnosis at worst, or, at best, a significant physical limitation that will negatively impact my ability to practice.
I'm the breadwinner for my family, retired DH and 3 teens. I provide the income, the access to health insurance, other benefits etc.
I am finding that I know too much, I see too many possibilities, and I get the clinical implications, prognosis, etc., Worst of all, knowing healthcare from the inside, I am very frustrated at the slow process of getting in to different physicians/offices/testing facilities so that I can just get this figured out and make plans accordingly.
