you sound like you are self advocating for yourself and you need to do that to get anywherewith most doctors escpailly at the va my dad goes there adn allways tell me how his doctor doesnt seem to adress the real issue and he too had to go out there and find anthor doc that would listen and help him whihc he got finally so please dont give up there is still hope and maybe if you find the real issue you wont have to take all the meds that you are on so keep trucking along you are a very strong woman and dont forget that ever....bobbie
