Is it all in my head? (Pun intended)

Do you ever have an issue and no one around you understands which leads you to question if anything is actually wrong or if you're acting like a hypochondriac. I second guess myself far too much. I think over-thinking this MS is going to send me to the looney bin.

@nakedandafraid omg yes, I'm undiagnosed and not only do I question myself I encounted such an unprofessional neuro that has not listened or discussed my vast symptoms (that do in fact make me question my own sanity, if I had never experienced these symptoms myself and read my list I'd think no way this can't be real) and for him to write in letter that he has told me before that some or all of my symptoms are health anxiety related. This is something he has never communicated with me and makes me fear that any other Dr which reads his letter will form this view of me and I will not be. Believed. Thank you for writing this post so I don't feel I am the only one.

This bounced around last week as well...the frustration with the comment of "but you look fine"...basically, yah, I'm just faking this whole Ms thing...frustrating. Or try to explain to someone what fatigue is about....and my husband saying that I should just exercise more so I don't get fatigued from little things....I need to build up endurance so I don't get fatigued. He has UC so I tell him that he just needs to eat more fiber or something so that he can poop right...exactly, it doesn't really work that way ;-0 although he has been able to remain mostly asymptomatic by having a strict diet...so then it is almost worse as he insists that if I just ate what Terry Wahl says or Swank or any of the others that my MS would go away. OK, and maybe have chemo and stem cel and estim treatment...kinda forgot about all that...
