I was diagnosed about 6 months ago. Sometimes I think I've come to terms with it and embraced it. Other times, not so much. I still doubt the diagnosis frequently. I also keep thinking - why was I fine for 32 years and suddenly I have this major problem that needs so much time, attention and money??????

I think it just takes time to get used to. It's just like any other diagnosis, just with less confirmation. If I were diagnosed as diabetic I know I'd have a hard time with that diagnosis even with hard proof of the illness. This is just harder because there are no definitive tests, in my opinion.
