Thank you so much.
When you all say there's a long wait time, what do you mean? Six months? Two years? I'm hoping to at least get a diagnosis so that if, heaven forbid, I should become fully incapacitated I will have some documentation about what is actually wrong with me. Of course I'd rather do that sooner than later but, if I have to wait two years or more, I would rather do that than go to one more doctor who will tell me this is all in my head.
On the other side of the realm of possibility, my current doctor is treating me, but he's treating through Eastern medicine and diagnostic categories are way different there. But he's trained in Western medicine as well, so I wonder if I could get a "politically correct" diagnosis through him in the event I need one more quickly. Might be worth talking with him about it, though I really do feel I need the full workup from someone who has a good idea about what to look for at this point.
