I can sure understand the feelings of having endless number of test being run on you. When I was in the hospital at the beginning of this year while not eating or taking in much liquids, my GP decided to run all the possible tests that could medically cause anorexia...to the point of $60,000. I never would have thought there were that many possible things that could be tested for that could cause that problem....only found a couple of small things medically that weren't the cause only they added to it or were caused by the mental condition. It is a true fact that our minds mess with our bodies & our bodies mess with our minds....that viscious circle....that usually require help for both sides of the problem.

At times it is frustrating because it seems like it would be easier to fix a physical problem than the complexities of our brains. I hope you get some answers that will help you get through all of things you are dealing with or at least point you in the direction that needs help.

The one thing I realized is that for me, there was never "a quick fix pill" that could fix the mental stuff. It seems to take quite a bit of hard work when it is all said & done.

Take care of yourself....beer isn't a good thing to mix with Lorazepam but relaxation techniques are much healther mentally & physically. Keep us informed & keep thinking positive.....glad you are getting good help.
