Thanks Elysium and AmandaLouise,

What I've decided I'm going to do is print out everything I have typed here on this forum and take it to my doctor. I'm just trying to see what she sees. You're right, self-diagnosis can be very harmful. I am finding that I am just working myself up into a frenzy of panic thinking that I'm going to disolve into something I can't even recognize. So I'm going to take a break from this forum. Thanks for your input and insight. I appreciate it.

Thanks for explaining the operator to me too Elysium, that was totally helpful! I'll PM you soon.

Love and hugs,
Tara
