Okay, let me try explaining it an easier way.
It takes them a very long time to diagnose you, like you said the tests aren't close to 100%.
The medication itself is not 100% either and takes many months to even see if it will help you.
Once you find a good medication ( I did 3 months ago) Yes! It is possible to live a normal life! But what do you do in all that down time??? You lay in bed in agony.
So now, yes I can work, but I make more doing this than I could doing anything else.
Source: I have the fucking disease.
It's a chronic disease, as in symptoms are suppose go away and flare up periodically like herpes. Meds are suppose to help manage the symptoms when they flair up. Also, I thought u had it for 3 yrs, you didn't go to the doctor for first 2 yrs you had it??

so, you're arguing that he shouldve got his disease under control faster, and shame on him for not figuring out such an obvious and easy solution?
and this little dabbling of thought you put toward the subject over the past hour or so now trumps miniguns years of consideration and decisions about his own health?
oh my god
Not saying that at all, he just didn't seem to know about the disease in detail, so I figured I would tell him what I know about it and if he didn't know about it already, it would only help him.
