When I got sick it took me a month to realise I might have had what my grandma had. That got scary for a moment because her tests were always normal and my whole family, myself included, thought she was a druggie. I got dead set on getting to the bottom of it and therefore got diagnosed in likely a record time despite being seronegative.
If you want to put a cherry on top then you can add referral to a psychologist in the last panel XD
Psychologists and physical therapists are the favorite referrals of doctors who essentially tell you “it’s your fault and/or you’re making it up.” Glad you got Dx’d quickly though!
I went through diagnoses of burnout, anxiety, FND, health anxiety, depression, before I finally met a doctor who did the right tests and diagnosed my illness.
The medical system has an obsession with psychologising illnesses they can’t explain. it’s scary.
The paradigm is, meke them do therapy and exercise, and everything will magically get better. Which, well when you have an underlying undiagnosed medical condition, just isn’t the case.

I got told to drink warm milk before bed as a response to fatigue, unbalance, and dizziness. That was a great $35.
They didn’t even run a test and told me to drink Gatorade
