I relate the most to you; being a Physical Therapist, administrator with seemingly unrelated symptoms for more than a year, I was misdiagnosed, treated improperly and patronized. Unfortunately for me at 37 y.o. I had catastrophic onset & losses including complete psychosis I was airlifted to Cleveland Clinic where they new better. My formal Mitochondrial Diagnosis didn't come for another 4 years. I have not been able to work since my initial onset. I now advocate for others groping for answe

@SalTaylor01 Uhgg.. psychogenic illness is 100% abused by docs! It means' they have no clue, but too arrogant to say so". It is insulting for them to even insinuate something as such. Someone that sees you for 5-10 minutes then comes up with such an absurd assessment without ruling out everything physical prior needs to get out of the medical field! I can only imagine many people go through life thinking they are nuts, because some doc labeled them as so. It is sad!
For the docs who see clips like this please listen. We as patients have to deal with so much physically disheartening. Emotional stress from the medical community is not needed. We are not crazy, and must cope with our challenges of daily lives. Our looks may be deceiving, at first glance.
Thank you so much for posting this...I was accused of psychogenic illness and misdiagnosed with conditions that only accounted for specific symptoms. It led to 17 unecessary neurosurgeries which took me from a symptomatic patient to bedridden on oxygen. I am recovering more function now that I am being managed appropriately but my heart breaks for those that are still undiagnosed!
