Re: Help! - DEATHsperation.

This thread makes me sad.

Mary... have you ever gone to a MD (licensed medical doctor...the kind a large percentage of people here dislike) and told that MD... please help, I am stinky and it will not go away.

The thing is conditions like this can have so many causes. It will likely require a lot of testing, many uncomfortable and will give you anxiety before, during and after. It will be very costly if you're uninsured but eventually they will figure it out.

There is enough information in this message group for you to be able to go to a doctor and tell them what tests you would like first.

It's the desperation of skittle enemas and motor oil internal cleanses (or anything that is remotely rumored to "work") that worry me for everyone here.

There is a reason behind everyone being here. That reason will not be the same for everyone. You need someone in your corner with the power to request tests until it's figured out.

Many doctors are narcissists at heart. Tell them that they have the power to help free you from this and help change your life if they stick with you until a diagnosis is made.
