As they have with me and hubby, his ailments are still under going investigation and no sign of the cause, it has been going on for a long time, I just burst into tears because it is all too much for me at the moment but right now I can smell my Mother in laws perfume, she died 3 years ago but I feel she is comforting me from heaven.

uncertainty is awful isn't it ZZZZ I am in a similar position although only of three months duration. Tears are a safety valve. Worse for them especially if they are in pain with no way of knowing why. <3 <3

He isn’t in pain, more like great discomfort and when he has tests it sets him back health wise.

I got very frustrated when hubby was referred for tests in dec 2009

Took ten months with delays along the way waiting for appointments and results to finally get a diagnoses

He was prescribed patches to slow down his brain cell loss and slow down the protein being attached to his brain neurons but it had progressed considerably whilst waiting for all the appointments etc

He really could have had some longer healthy time with an earlier diagnosis

:-(

I know what the tests are and he can’t not have them, vicious circle really and it’s dragging me down and tearful at the moment.

Dear ZZzzz,
I really feel for you. We are in the same position..
Hubbys scans came back all clear,
Thats good but hes still in so much pain bless him.
Continual headaches and nausea for over 4 years and now for the past year terrible tummy pain.
Its so frustrating and I get so upset not being able to help him.
Stay safe and try to keep strong. Easy to say but hard to do. xx <3

AnnMarieG.
Thank you for saying that, I wish your hubby didn’t have the health problem and hope he is cured soon.
My hubby has had test after test but they can’t find what caused it, he has been in hospital twice.
If tomorrow’s test doesn’t show anything I don’t think he will go through any more.
