“F**k you, you stupid POS. If it wasn’t for multiple tests my mom would be dead now.”

I hear you. Two years ago I was in a wheelchair, almost completely paralyzed with cardiac issues. This went on for a freakin’ YEAR. Finally, after several specialists and I don’t know how many tests, they figured out that I had a vitamin B-1 deficiency. Thiamine. Yes, it was that simple of a fix. A shot a week and I’m fine.

But it took a hell of a lot to figure it OUT. Had they not pushed on, I’d be dead by now from a heart attack.

The moral of the story is doctors aren't perfect and it takes multiple tests or multiple opinions to get a diagnosis correct. I could name many other examples in my family.

Your situation must be serious to require a shot. I guess vitamins weren't enough.
