The Story of My Life

---

Growing up I was a happy healthy child until I hit my teens !! It started with ovarian cysts and endometriosis which we. Managed to get it under control once I was put on a birth control shot. Then in 2004 it wasn't feeling too good again to find out but I had Graves disease, and it was a lot more aggressive then what we had thought. Later that year I had to have the gator removed. However I still had the symptoms from having Graves disease. Then I had 2 kids life was great for a while until 2009. I was told that I needed to get the H1N1 shot and my tetanus shot because I was immune compromised due to the graves disease and I was living in a new state!! I did as I was told within weeks my world started spiraling out of control. I couldn't figure out what was going on I called the doctors made several visits to the ER came home with no answers!! after having to do some research myself. I came acrossed my symptoms (SMA and GP)I presented my doctor with my findings. That's when we all began to realize I had been getting sicker whole entire time. We have tried everything at this point. However I will not allow a pacemaker nor will I allow a feeding tube I feel if that's just a Band-Aid on a situation that will again spiral out of control even more then it already is. This isn't something that can be fixed and its a constant struggle every day every hour. I refuse to give up but at this point in time I tend to feel defeated!! I wish hope and pray we find a cure!! So I'm going to take it a day at a time and try too enjoy my love ones
