I just read the book and I am basically an anxiety ridden hypochondriac. I have had many tests and gone from physician to physician. I was convinced I had MS but after meeting with Neurologists they told me I was fine. I have a question, does anyone get the following symptoms?
Tightness all over the body Burning sensation on arms
My tests used to come back normal now they show inflammation and elevated sedrate (inflammation). Nothing helps though so I am thinking that my body created the inflammation in order to "show" the doctors that something really was wrong. It's amazing what the body can do. I was thought of as a hypochondriac too until my body showed them!!! It's not funny but in a way it is if you think about it. Just wish my body would rid itself of the cruel joke that it's playing on the world to prove there really was something there. It's done quite a performance, I can't straighten my legs all the way or bend them all the way, current doctor is thinknig/hoping that once my body rids itself of the excess fluid that that will change. I hope so too.
