Winter has felt like it's flown by, even though I've went thru a lot with my health. Years ago I had really bad problems in my stomach and got it under control and was normal 90% of the time, until last spring. It hit me hard and nothing worked to settle it down. it was a totally different feeling all together. I've had days where I was so sick with nausea all day long and every night I'm sick, but some nights where I couldn't sleep even if I was setting up. every time I would start to fall asleep, my heart would race and I would get extremely nauseous, but I would feel so fatigue. When I was out in public or visiting anyone, I would just put a smile on my face and let on like nothing was going on. it's all I could do, because I don't want to go thru the whole thing trying to explain to everyone I run into. it gets old fast.
For months I tried to get into a specialist and WVU kept sending me to young PA's with absolutely no work ethnic and I don't care attitudes. I believe it's just a big money making scheme to suck up as much money from the insurance and put patients in deep debt. I ended up going back to my old PA, because I know she would refer me to a Dr at a different hospital. In the meantime we discussed all the symptoms I was having and she said, "let's run test on your pancreas". Well she called me with the test results and told me the news. My pancreas was low on enzymes. I didn't really understand it, but I began to do research. I have EPI. I guess it's rare. There is a lot more to the story, but I'm not going to type it all out. But long story short, a specialist confirmed I have it. I'm now starting a new journey and changing my diet and doing other things to help myself. I'm praying daily for a complete healing. It's incurable, but I've seen God heal people of things that were impossible to medical science.
