I am have been trying to find out what is wrong with me for five years. Can anyone help?

I have been having stomach cramps that have been basically been turning into convulsions and dry heaving and along with that I’ve hade nausea. It got to the point that I was sent to the Cleveland Clinic and they thought it was Schleroderma. Now not so sure. I am so depressed that I am acting out by drug addiction/ self mutilation because no one will listen to me and I am in such horrendous pain that I can’t stand it. Still no diagnosis for five years and counting,,, actually starting 6 now.

I suggest that you go back to the Cleveland Clinic which I think is a center of excellence hospital now. I’m sure that they can diagnose and help you. I think you already know that you can’t go on doing what you’re doing. This type of living isn’t going to last long without some type of consequences. I know that sometimes life just sucks, but everyone goes through this. It all depends on what you do with whatever comes your way. You can either lead the high road and when life deals you a bad blow, then just blow back harder or trip and fall down the low road. Right now it looks like you’re traveling the low road and looking for a life raft. There is one there if you reach out for it and go aboard. The decision is up to you. Good luck and God Bless
