[quote=Anonymous]People here have earned the right to vent. I have a teen with several chronic medical illnesses that took dozens of providers years to diagnose. Twice she fell into despair that anyone would ever find out what was causing her hard to deal with medical problems (apart from the it must all be in her head diagnoses) and attempted suicide. I dunno, maybe it's really uncharitable of me that I haven't let go of that day in the ER last year when two nurses and I worked two hours nonstop dealing with extreme agitation, hallucinations, and sustained 180 heart rate caused by a med overdose before the doctor finally intubated her. Yes, I am grateful she is alive. But no, I can't yet be zen about all she and our family went through before finally finding providers who took the time and care to find out what was wrong.[/quote]
