Hundreds of thousands of dollars spent across multiple years and still not diagnosed.
My partner has been suffering from chronic nausea and vomiting for years at this point, every single common cause has been ruled out with gastroparesis being the only thing she presents with. Acid reflux, getting full very quickly, consistent vomiting every morning, either immediate or after a period of intense stomach pain, lower and upper back pain and severe weight loss. The amount of debt continues to pile up and even through research hospitals no real answer has been presented, with the majority of her medication having little effect.
Oh, goodness,
.
I am so sorry. I wish your situation was a rare one, but, sadly, I know too many people have gotten into medical debt just trying to get a diagnosis, let alone treatment. I could go on an hours long rant about healthcare/insurance in this country, but I will spare you.
That said, please know you and your partner are not alone in this. Far too many of us have dealt with the huge burden of medical bills. And I am truly sorry your partner is still experiencing these debilitating symptoms. I'm not going to pepper you with questions, as I am certain you have both have been asked plenty already.
I hope some answers DO come, despite how things look right now.
Gentle Hugs, Erin, Team Member.
