hi could you tell me what ME is. i have been told i have everything you have, i’m not dyslexic
my daughter is though. my dr does not believe in TMJ, fibromyagia, chronic fatigue. he makes me mad sometimes but other times he’s great. i’m so tired i can’t talk or think. thanks for listening.

Whether your doctor ‘believes in it’, or not, it still exists and it’s his job to identify and fix it, that’s what they get paid for. I don’t know how they get away with it really! Why aren’t they made accountable for their actions (or lack of) or sacked!!

A mechanic has to know the inside and out of a car, in it’s totality, so he can ‘fix’ any problems, so why doesn’t a doctor. The mechanic will listen to the ‘noise’ or whatever and INVESTIGATE it’s cause, not just say ‘I don’t believe in it’ and send you on your way. What would happen if they did, well something else would go wrong, then something else, then the car would grind to a halt – just like us!
