Lifetime special

0 Recommendations

My life as of a week ago is over/sucks. I have come down with the most stupidest thing and no one believes me I mean come on I'm 16 but I'm not stupid. I know their is something wrong with me and no one is going to see it until oh I don't know maybe when I'm about to get into either a coma or I'm going to die. I knew something was up as soon as I got to the doctors office in the waiting room. I say to my mom while I'm twitching uncontrollably, you know they aren't going to find anything...none of the symptoms match. She says nothing and then I go in there. They say I'm healthy while I'm dizzy in front of their eyes and shaking and saying I have a bad headache...Stupidity never ceases to amaze me these days. I go to a high school, there stupidity runs wild but at a doctors office? In the most hated place in my mind besides dentists? No, can't be.
My mom doesn't believe me because she hasn't seen my "episodes" come on lady I told you them, you witnessed half of them... -_- she also thinks their has to be something going on in school. I say, school is boring, I am lazy, the end. Their was to be something at school! No lady please remove yourself from fantasy land and enter reality with the rest of us. Then she says, and here is the funny thing, she says, what do you have....what do I have?...No no I'm going to get shot with thunder if I go off on that, then she says if it's a virus when do you think it will be over....when? OH COME ON! She makes it seem like I did this on purpose -__- Then I say, why would I make myself sick? I don't really know...Mom...No...Just go to work and leave me alone before I say something horrible. So now I'm thinking I'm probably not going back to school because if my luck keeps going I'm going to get worse and end up in the hospital forever while they test, which will probably hurt or humiliate me, and misdiagnose me. What utter joy that will be. Ugh my spine hurts again.
I think about the situation very carefully...This sounds like a lifetime movie special that I've watched every so often...when I was like 10. The girl, usually a girl, has something wrong with her and no one does anything about it, says their is nothing wrong with her. She knows thier is something wrong and her mom has her instinct so she goes off to try and find what it is while her daughter is in the hospital. By the way the women is usually single. Anyway then she finds it while doctors are testing the daughter and she finds it's a rare disease OR and here is the kicker she has gotten a NEW disease. How joyful. I'm sure Lou Garrison was over joyed when he got to name a new disease after himself and then died -_0 or something. Then they find out what's wrong because ONE always ONE doctor takes what the mom says and does something about it. Then she is alright after a long time and then she gets happiness and bliss and all if right with the world then they make some kind of awareness program for this rare disease. The end, then they say when the girl died or if she didn't die, tear jerker, the end.
My life if a lifetime special and I can't change the channel.

I believe you, even tho I don't know your symptoms. I'm a mother who lost two boys to unusual diseases, and it took the docs ages to diagnoze.
One would have been controlable and he would probably be still with us, but neither the school nor the docs believed what I and my daughter observed at home. Also one or two friends of this son noticed he wasn't quite right...
So I believe you. I prefer to believe and be taken for a fool, than not to believe and carry on as if everything were fine in this world....

Thank you very much, you gave me a boost of confidence to fight on
