Good grief, Anne - you've had, and are still going through, quite an ordeal with your health and care issues.
Just recently, a cancer survivor addressing my running group at a seminar said that only you know your body as well as you, your doctors are only taught out of books - and might have some experience with what you describe to them. She's the one who kept insisting that something was very wrong before a doctor bothered to check her further - she has breast cancer and just came out of chemo and a double mastectomy!
Thank you for sharing your story. You emphasize the importance of paying attention to the care you're receiving. I'm so sorry to hear about your sister and her son.
It's also terrific that your husband found this site for you.
