Re: Needing to vent

Hang in there - I am lucky as I don't know "how" you feel as I have not walked in your shoes - but I vote with the note from Laurel!

I know that I feel (lots of the time) that my doctors here in Italy, that they think I am completely madd - however, I keep asking more questions and pushing when I feel I need help.

I think you should insist that your doc SEES YOU! Or, like Laurel says - go to ER! If you have something serious - you need to know sooner, not later.

Sending you healing energy! Hope this helps! Karen
